Hello Games, the studio behind No Man’s Sky, has unveiled its most ambitious update yet. Dubbed “Worlds Part 1”, the 5.0 update promises to redefine the game’s visual and gameplay experience. On top of that, despite the end of the Steam Summer Sale, the game is currently 60% off until July 29th – making it a fantastic time to get into the game for the first time.
This latest iteration is a testament to the studio’s commitment to its community of players. As Hello Games’ Sean Murray puts it, the update includes features that players “almost gave up hope on ever happening.” The core of this overhaul lies in a suite of new graphical technologies designed to bring the universe to life in more detail.

With “Worlds Part 1,” No Man’s Sky continues its remarkable journey from a game once criticized for its lack of content to a title that consistently delivers on its promises. The sheer scale of the update and the ongoing development of the game raise the question: Is No Man’s Sky on its way to becoming the most expansive and detailed non-MMO ever created? Only time will tell, but with Hello Games at the helm, the future looks incredibly bright.
While this update represents a significant leap forward, it’s important to note that it’s just the beginning. As the name suggests, “Worlds Part 1” implies that further enhancements are on the horizon. With each update, No Man’s Sky continues to defy expectations and redefine the boundaries of what a single-player game can achieve.
