[2022] Announcing...a Return of the 2022 Community Expeditions for the Holidays.

A lil somethin somethin: You can find the details for this event on the announcement page here.

Hello,

2022 marks our sixth year in the life of No Man's Sky and it has been one of the busiest yet.

In February we released our first ever handheld version of No Man's Sky day and date with Steam Deck. It has been amazing to us to consistently see us in the Top 10 most played games since then.

From that point on, there has been no stopping our small team. Four major updates have dropped (taking our total since launch to 21!)

SENTINEL[www.nomanssky.com]

No Man’s Sky SENTINEL[www.nomanssky.com] allows you to fight alongside your own personal robotic companions and battle an array of new foes! Introducing a total overhaul of weapon systems; new lore and stories; all-new Sentinel enemies and combat behaviours; the ability to reprogram and adopt your very own friendly AI drone; and much, much more!



OUTLAWS[www.nomanssky.com]

With the OUTLAWS[www.nomanssky.com] update comes the opportunity to be an interstellar rebel! Introducing outlaw systems; the ability to recruit your own squadron of pilots; improved space combat; a stunning Solar Sail Starship, and much more!



ENDURANCE[www.nomanssky.com]

No Man’s Sky’s 20th free update, ENDURANCE[www.nomanssky.com], reimagines the experience of being a freighter captain, with a total rework for space bases that allows you to build visually spectacular structures upon your very own capital ship.



WAYPOINT (4.0)[www.nomanssky.com]

WAYPOINT (4.0)[www.nomanssky.com], No Man’s Sky’s 4.0 update, is an overhaul of fundamental gameplay elements including game modes, inventory size and usability, milestones, journey cataloguing and much more!



We also continued with the ever-popular community missions (and the associated rewards and Twitch Drops), clocking up 4 expeditions, including the gargantuan LEVIATHAN[www.nomanssky.com].



We also welcomed a swathe of new Travellers into the game when we performed a minor miracle by releasing the Nintendo Switch version in what people are calling one of the best ports for the platform:



In addition to all that, we also found time to announce that No Man's Sky is in development for macOS and PlayStation VR2, the latter coming as a free update in February 2023 day and date with the PSVR2 hardware.



In 2021, to close out the year, we re-ran the year's expeditions in a reduxed format over the holiday season to give people another chance to experience these events and reap the rewards when time is perhaps a little more available. That proved to be very popular so we are pleased to announce that we are doing it again. Here are just a few of the rewards you can earn:



And here are the dates:

Expedition 5 (Exobiology): 24th Nov - 8th Dec
Expedition 6 (Blighted): 8th Dec - 22nd Dec
Expedition 7 (Leviathan): 22nd Dec - 5th Jan
Expedition 8 (Polestar): 5th Jan - 18th Jan

Plans are well underway for 2023 and we look forward to sharing what we've been working on in the new year.

Our journey continues.
