No Man's Sky celebrates ninth anniversary with new, surprisingly fuzzy, aliens

No Man's Sky is the epitome of a feel-good story of game development, a better redemption arc than Boromir. The now-iconic space game was a mess at launch, riddled with bugs and boring gameplay. However, developer Hello Games knuckled down and got to work improving things. After a lot of hard work, the game slowly brought players back on board. Once the base game was interesting, the team started expanding the experience. More vehicles, mechs, aliens, mechanics, bases... more everything, really. No Man's Sky went from being a punchline to a legitimately good game that you can while away hours in without even realising, and now it's celebrating its ninth birthday with some aliens that you can bring into your own home.

No Man's Sky's latest big update that is somehow also free will let you become a mayor, of all things


It is happening again. No Man's Sky is getting another huge update filled with all sorts of new things to do, and because there's so much, we'll just jump straight into it. First of all, the space simulation game just lets you become a mayor of a town now. Or, I guess an Overseer as described in the patch notes (it says mayor in the trailer), a role that lets you look after four settlements by governing their inhabitants and investing in their infrastructure.
