A huge overhaul!! Update No Man's Sky Worlds Part 1 Update

The developer of No Man's Sky revealed a new update for the action-adventure survival game today, and it's shaping up to be one of the game's biggest patches yet. The patch—Update 5.0, also known as "Worlds Part I"—is all about refining the finer details of the universe. The universe is now a "richer, wilder, more diverse and immersive place," according to the (incredibly long) patch notes, with more planet diversity, additional gameplay features, and quality of life improvements.

The list of changes includes floating islands on which players can build bases, adjustments for solar ships, new creature designs, more pronounced water and weather effects, and an expedition to hunt for insects.

“We’re completely overhauling the universe with new technology, new flora, new fauna, and new gameplay,” Hello Games founder Sean Murray said in the update’s six-minute announcement trailer. “We’re achieving a level of variety that just wasn’t possible before.”
