No Man’s Sky has released its latest free Orbital Update, offering exciting new features for players. The update introduces a complete overhaul of space stations, allowing for a more immersive and varied experience within the game.
One of the most significant changes in the Orbital update is the revamp of space stations, which have remained largely unchanged since the game’s launch on Xbox five years ago. The update aims to enhance the player experience by introducing vast and varied space stations, creating a bustling destination for trade, equipment upgrades, missions, and fast travel around the universe.
Players will notice the vastness of the new space stations as they approach the docking entrance, with procedurally-generated exteriors ensuring a unique experience with each encounter. The interior layouts also offer a wide variety, adding to the sense of exploration and discovery.
A notable addition to the space station map is the Ship Fabricator, allowing players to customize their starships by combining parts of salvaged ships to create new configurations. This feature opens up a world of possibilities for players to create their dream starships, adding a new layer of excitement to the game.
Additionally, the update introduces envoys from the three universe guilds – Merchant, Mercenary, and Explorer – who can be found at the new space stations. Interacting with these envoys offers players the opportunity to increase their standing with the guilds through donations of interesting artifacts.
The Orbital update is a testament to the ongoing commitment of the No Man’s Sky development team to deliver regular updates and improvements to the game. With the introduction of these exciting new features, both new and veteran players can look forward to an enhanced gaming experience within the vast universe of No Man’s Sky.
