No Man's Sky News

[p]Hello,[/p][p][/p][p]Well, we suspected that the No Man’s Sky Voyagers update was going to cause some excitement in the universe, but never did we expect such a huge influx- seeing player numbers we’ve not seen since launch… nine years ago![/p][p][/p][p]Our update for Halloween is called Breach, and it leans into the thrill of custom ship assembly, space-walking, skydiving, and community spirit introduced in Voyagers. It is free to download today for existing players. Full patch notes are available here.[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p][/p][p]In Breach, players will traverse a desolate and abandoned universe and on their travels encounter the abandoned remains of ill-fated corvette ships, all ripe for scavenging ship modules to add to your corvette-building arsenal.[/p][p]
[/p][p]Excavating these wrecks will yield an array of corvette pieces including rare vertical parts which unlock a whole new range of build configurations for the more creative designers. [/p][p][/p][p]Among the exclusive expedition rewards, there is also a set of Atlas-themed modules for those wanting to demonstrate their allegiance to the all-seeing entity.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]The jewel in the crown of these wreckages is the Fireship Arcadia, the fate of which you will learn as you venture through Breach. But you will have to face your fears and make a leap of faith into the black as you space-walk through these eerie systems to glean its unique remnants.[/p][p][/p][h2]Breach Expedition[/h2][p][/p][p]The spooky Breach Expedition embraces the darker side of the universe and will also lure the bravest Travellers towards the ominous and exotic purple-star solar systems which players first glimpsed in Worlds Part II back in January. The planets in these systems are particularly foreboding with their deep, abyssal oceans, unearthly entities and the notoriously imposing and volatile gas giants.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]The Breach Expedition begins today, and will run for approximately three weeks.[/p][p][/p][p]Space Wreckage[/p][p]In the far reaches of deep space, wrecked corvettes can now be encountered and salvaged. Step out into zero-gravity to explore these hollow hulks, and equip your Multi-Tool laser to dismantle their valuable modules - then repurpose this scrap to build your dream ship at a Corvette Workshop.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]New Corvette Modules[/p][p]A significant number of new corvette modules are now salvageable from deep-space corvette wrecks and planetary scrapheaps. These include new landing gear, shields, weapons, connectors, and a number of highly-requested wedge-shaped modules that enable a huge variety of creative and complicated corvette builds.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Quality of Life[/p][p]In addition to the bundle of fixes, improvements, and new features in today’s update, the No Man’s Sky team have been hard at work on improving Voyagers since its launch in August. Notably, snapping is greatly improved, collision is more robust, and the Corvette Workshop now offers the option to apply a colour palette to an entire corvette. There has never been a better time to build a corvette![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Breach Expedition Rewards[/h3][p][/p][p]Event Horizon, Eternal Serpents, and Siren of the Stars Posters[/p][p][/p][p]These decorative posters commemorating the Breach expedition depict a deep-space gravitational anomaly, the tileable eternal serpent of time, and a betentacled siren, poised to begin its mucal embrace…[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Aeron Cowling & Diffuser[/p][p][/p][p]The geometry of these corvette modules is ancient and unmistakable, shaped by the crimson heartbeat of the universe itself.[/p][p][/p][p]The extruded Aeron Cowling and Aeron Diffuser hull plates add a bold, angular appearance to your corvette’s silhouette.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Wings of Aeron[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]This Atlas-themed wing module stabilises the corvette during atmospheric flight.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Aeron Pyramid, Aeron Pillar & Aeron Winglet[/p][p][/p][p]These decorative Atlas-themed modules can be affixed to the corvette exterior, furthering the ship’s devotion to the crimson entity.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Aeron Powershield[/p][p][/p][p]The Aeron Powershield is linked to the corvette’s shielding system, providing a significant performance boost to the ship’s defence array.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Aeron Starship Trail[/p][p]This engine modification injects the Starship exhaust trail with an arterial streak of crimson.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Aeron Drive & Aeron Blade[/p][p]Design a hefty, heavyweight Atlas corvette with the bulky Aeron Drive, or favour a more lightweight, sleek aesthetic with the streamlined Aeron Blade wing.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]No Man’s Sky Plushies[/h2][p][/p][p]There are just two weeks left to order our limited-edition Traveller and Gek plushies before they warp away![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Available to order here until November 5th.[/p][p][/p][p]The tiny No Man’s Sky team have been running on more cylinders than even I thought they had this year with barely a breath taken between Worlds Part II, Relics, Beacon and the epic Voyagers. We’re still having a lot of fun, and, from the looks of our player numbers, so are many of the community.[/p][p][/p][p]Full patch notes for the Breach update are available here.[/p][p][/p][p]Our journey continues.[/p][p][/p][p]Sean[/p][p][/p][p]P.S.
