No Man’s Sky
The next update for No Man’s Sky is now teased, with the name being No Man’s Sky: Beyond, and it will bring some new online game components
A new major update for No Man’s Sky is on its way for this Summer for all of you out there still playing the game. There are still a million of you out there or so according to Hello Games, so keep playing or updating as there is a new bit coming at you. Just like there last major update, this one has a snazzy name attached to it in the way of No Man’s Sky: Beyond. Okay, maybe it is not too snazzy but it fits the idea they seem to be going with for their updates and such. Just know it is coming and will add to the way we all play the game in a multiplayer aspect.
And…that is about all we know for it. Well, outside of the first thing tease being called No Man’s Sky Online which makes it sound like they are going with an MMO style of game, but they want to make sure we do not see it as an MMO. By default it really is, but it boils down to the fact that there will be no subscriptions, microtransactions, and will be free for existing players. That last part is a bit concerning as it hints that there will be a cost for anyone who wants to dive back into the game after the update. I guess we will see when we actually get more than this tease and name drop.
