No Man’s Sky Will Be Dropping A New Major Content Update Later Today
No Man’s Sky seems to be trying to make up for lost time because we’ve got another major content drop headed our way barely a month after The Abyss rolled out on October 29th. Hello Games unveiled the new update called “Visions” in a recent press release along with a release date that would've probably caught anyone by surprise.
“Following “The Abyss” update released last month, which brought major changes to No Man’s Sky’s vast underwater environments, “Visions” will encourage players to return to the surface and explore new biomes and planets, all in a reimagined colour palette.”
Visions will feature new worlds and planets that players can explore along with new flora and fauna including carnivorous trap plants just waiting to ensnare unwary explorers. The update will also introduce Global Community Missions which will give players the opportunity to work together towards a common goal and reap the rewards as a group.
The update also brings more diversity and variety to the sci-fi sandbox game while adding more stuff to do. “Atmospherics and skies have been improved and rainbows added to the range of in-game weather effects, enabling more unique worlds,” says Hello Games. “Players are invited to unleash their inner archaeologist and explore the galaxy for planets containing the bones of ancient alien lifeforms. Travellers can unearth the remains of fallen satellites to salvage for parts but risk drawing the attention of a new threat and danger – corrupted sentinel drones. Players who can endure and survive the most extreme of weather in No Man’s Sky may also be rewarded with previous crystal treasures that only light up in the worst of storms.”
Visions will roll out for Steam, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 players on November 22nd. There’s also a shiny new trailer that you can watch right after the break. You can also head over to the No Man’s Sky official site for more info.
