No Man's Sky has revealed details of its next update: the long-anticipated Worlds Part 2. This is the follow-up to July 2024's Worlds Part 1, which represented a massive shake-up for planets across the galaxy. Players discovered all-new features, like giant bugs and floating islands, and expansions to existing ones, like more immersive weather effects, and more diverse plant life in certain biomes. Worlds Part 2 attempts to expand on that concept, bringing a whole new host of game-changing features to No Man's Sky.
Now, with Worlds Part 2, No Man's Sky is bigger and better than ever, with new features including massive gas giants, strange new creatures, a gargantuan living starship, and a brand-new quest that ties together storylines from the past nine years of updates. It also includes improvements to existing features: oceans are now deeper, mountains are now taller, and it's all colored in by an improved lighting system for greater immersion. The full patch notes are now accessible on the official No Man's Sky website - plus, a six-minute deep dive into all the new features via HelloGamesTube.
Perhaps the biggest change introduced by the Worlds Part 2...
