Expedition 11 - Voyagers - Now Live!

Hello Everyone!

One week ago, we released ECHOES, our largest update of 2023. The team has put a lot of love into this release, and the community response has been incredible – it has been so exciting to see players meeting the Autophage, building their own Voltaic Staff, engaging in space combat with the new outlaw Dreadnought ships, and utilising the Wonder Projector in entertaining and unexpected ways!

Today, we are launching Voyagers, our eleventh community expedition for No Man’s Sky. Voyagers is a relaxing journey of exploration, encouraging Travellers to seek out remarkable worlds, reach planetary summits and oceanbeds, and catalogue their findings.



Travellers will begin the expedition aboard their freighter in the Oishida system, ready to deploy their ship into space. Plot a route through the stars to discover exotic creatures, venture to extreme worlds, excavate ancient treasures, dive through a black hole, and much more!



After completing Voyagers, or when the expedition concludes, you will have the option to convert your progress to a Normal Mode save.

The exclusive rewards detailed below are registered at the Space Anomaly’s Quicksilver Synthesis Companion, and any earnt rewards may be redeemed across all save games.

The Voyagers expedition begins today, and will run for approximately two months.

An exclusive Exosuit Appearance Override for the Jetpack. Humidifiers discharge a highly salinated mist from the rocket nozzles, conducting a dramatic streak of electricity during Jetpack operation.



[h3]Voyage-Themed Posters[/h3]
Adorn your base with these Navigators, Anomalous Wonder and Open Horizons posters – celebrating those who push at the boundaries of reality, those in search of the next unknown sky, and the sheer anomaly of existence…



[h3]Mechanical Paw[/h3]
An exclusive Companion Appearance Enhancement. This biomechanical remnant is a constant reminder of the many and diverse forms that existence can take.



[h3]Construct Base Ornaments[/h3]
This set of exclusive buildable base ornaments includes a makeshift planetary shelter, a detailed replica of an Autophage facial cage, and a partially assembled robotic hand. Please note that the units contain no trace of Autophage entity inhabitation…



[h3]HoverDroid Companion[/h3]
This Robotic Spawn Capsule will hatch a mechanical HoverDroid companion. A low hum resonates from deep within the capsule, its dissonant frequency turning the air around it a faint purple.



Thank you for playing Voyagers, and we look forward to sharing more news with you soon.

Our journey continues.

7 years after launch, No Man's Sky adds its first new race in its biggest update of the year




Two years before Starfield was announced, the sprawling sci-fi epic No Man's Sky launched to a decidedly mixed reaction: It really wasn't quite what was promised by the pre-release hype. Seven years later, Starfield is just a week away from release, and No Man's Sky has evolved into a genuine hit, and has now dropped yet another major update, Echoes, that adds an all-new race of robots to the game with "rich new story content" for players to explore...

Introducing...No Man's Sky Echoes

Hello,

It’s unbelievable to me that it has been SEVEN years since No Man’s Sky was released, and to celebrate today we are releasing our largest update of the year - No Man’s Sky ECHOES. Full patch notes can be found here.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

Our aim with ECHOES has been to breathe new life into the universe, with a new robotic race, our first race introduced since launch in 2016.



We have also overhauled space combat with a focus on creating truly epic space battles, introducing freighter to freighter battles for the first time.



In ECHOES Travellers will discover a never seen before, long-hidden race of robots with rich new story content. Engage in robot assignments and rituals to earn a huge array of mechanical parts to create your own robotic avatar.



New Pirate freighters bring huge space battles to the universe. Defend fleets from pirates. Fly through enemy trenches to sabotage their shields, and destroy them!



Players can search out and assemble their own sci-fi ceremonial staff. Level this up with unique new technology to mine and battle your way through the universe.



Travellers can now search for, trade and scrap weapons, allowing players to become Multi-tool scrap merchants. Travellers can also choose from a wider array of weapons and tools, including the staff and also a new powerful Atlantid weapon.



This year we introduced the ability to store a catalogue of player’s most wondrous discoveries. A new Holographic museum allows you to decorate and display your favourite weird and wonderful discoveries in your base for others to visit and see.

An exploration focused expedition - VOYAGERS - starts soon for explorers and adventurers to explore the universe and catalogue its marvels. Together with a Twitch drops campaign this brings a host of new content and rewards for players.

These are just a few of the things that players can look forward to when they dive into the Echoes update from today.

It has already been a pretty busy year for the small No Man’s Sky team with players enjoying the launch of the FRACTAL and INTERCEPTOR updates and the major SINGULARITY expedition. Fittingly ECHOES marks our anniversary by making our universe more exciting, dangerous and interesting to explore.

Our journey continues.
