No Man’s Sky gets another major update

No Man’s Sky is the gift that keeps on giving. Just two months after its last major patch (the Interceptor Update), Hello Games have simultaneously announced and released their next big update – Singularity – adding an ARG, robotics, a ship of AI souls and more.

As with pretty much every other No Man’s Sky update, patch 4.3 – the Singularity Update – brings with it a whole host of improvements as well as a great deal of additional content, with the team saying: “Today, we are releasing update 4.30, which includes the Singularity expedition, as well as a number of stability and gameplay fixes. We look forward to seeing everyone exploring Singularity’s challenges and narrative – and we have many more surprises in store for this year! Our journey continues.”

With that, just some of the new additions and changes arriving with this update is as follows:

• Adopt the appearance of a mechanical automaton with a full body customisation set
• Discordant Jetpack Trail – When activated, its discordant effect is spilled across the landscape, a trail of dissonant reverberations that echo on a strange and unknowable frequency…
• Crimson Freighter Trail – A cosmetic enhancement to your freighter’s main drive
• Living Fragment Base Decorations
• The starship’s autopilot will now prevent players from crashing into various space points of interest while engaged on the starship communicator
• Introduced a significant load-time optimisation for PlayStation platforms
• Fixed an issue that caused a number of particle effects to be missing on PC
• Fixed an issue that could prevent screenspace reflections and other similar effects from rendering correctly
• Fixed a number of graphical issues with capes when using FSR2
• Introduced a number of improvements to quick menu usage in VR, making it easier & more precise to use

With every No Man’s Sky update it feels as though Hello Games have overhauled the title – and patch 4.3 is seemingly no different. The No Man’s Sky Singularity Update is available right now and the full patch notes can be found HERE.
