No Man’s Sky continues to grow with another update. With the Xbox pass, the release of Windows 10 and the update last month that allowed cross-play, the game has seen a huge increase in the game census. On this note, the developers have released another update for the game, promising improved combat and increased opportunities for space exploration. Sean Murray, the programmer of the independent studio Hello Games, was happy to announce it on news.xbox.com.
“Last month, we welcomed over a million new players to No Man’s Sky thanks to the Xbox Game Pass and Windows 10 version. This, combined with our cross-play update, meant that we are seeing some of our biggest game numbers ever played together, regardless of their gaming platform. It is truly humiliating, almost two years after its first release on Xbox One, that there are still so many people interested in exploring our universe. ”

No Man’s Sky: Desolation will improve the NMS experience
For those who do not know the game, imagine Halo but if its objective was more exploration and survival. But the game also has its fair share of combat. The game revolves around an extraterrestrial humanoid planetary explorer called “Traveler” in the unexplored universe.

The developers have regularly updated the game and included new features from time to time. The latest Desolation update brought a list of quality of life changes and new features. In addition to this, the game now allows you to customize your cargo. Along with that, he has also provided new combat and arsenal improvements in the game.
Regarding the main objective of the Desolation update, expect a whole new bunch of exploration zones. There are a lot of cargo ships abandoned in space with defective AI drones and half-active security systems. Some of these cargo ships are also teeming with hostile entities. The new update had definitely increased the possibilities for exploration (and action). In addition, you can use parts from abandoned freighters to improve your own.
NMS now has a wider community, thanks to Xbox Game Pass
This game has had a constant and constantly growing community over the years. It has spread to all platforms with its worldwide release on Xbox One in 2018. Last month, the developers managed to bring the whole community together with their crossplay update. Currently, NMS is examining its largest numbers of games ever made.
The game also reached an important milestone that helped it achieve such a large population in the community. The inclusion of this game in the Xbox Game Pass is undoubtedly a big step for him. It does indeed seem like the right time to launch an update as big as Desolation, right after you’ve built this big community for the game.
