Hello!

No Man’s Sky is a game that we all genuinely truly love. Last year we released Worlds Part I[www.nomanssky.com] and I remember thinking at the time that this is just the beginning. We can’t wait to show people what we’ve been working on! There’s new solar systems, new planets with more variety, new terrain types, even new Gas Giants, and of course new adventures. Our next update is called Worlds Part II. Full patch notes are available ... Read more

Hello Everyone!

The first of 2024’s holiday expeditions has just come to an end: the redux of Omega[www.nomanssky.com]. We’ve loved reading everyone’s expedition anecdotes and positive feedback, and seeing the incredible popularity of the Starborn Runner starship. However, if you missed this opportunity to claim the Starborn Runner (or if you just can’t get enough of its hovership design) we have some very good news…

Today, in association with The Game Awards 2024 and to celebrate our Best Community Support nomination, we are excited to reveal the Starborn Phoenix, a limited edition golden st... Read more

Hello Folks!

Last night we finally did it! After eight years, we crossed the 80% positive review threshold on Steam to earn a "Very Positive" badge on "ALL REVIEWS". Honestly, I didn't think we'd ever do this, and it's all thanks to you all in the community. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

We have nearly quarter of a million reviews, so mathematically it's pretty hard to change the % that are positive! For every 10,000 players, maybe 100 review the game. If 80% of those reviews are positive, the first 79 don't change our %, only that 80th person makes a difference! Ten thousands players, resulting in a single extra positive, dropped into an ocean of quarter of a million existing reviews! It gets geometrically harder the higher you climb too - so moving from 70% to 71% took us a month, but moving from 79% to 80% took nearly a year! We figured it might never happen - but it has and it genuinely means so much to us.

This year has been particularly busy for our ... Read more
