No Man's Sky comes to Xbox One today, brings Multiplayer to all platforms as well
Hello Games and 505 Games have announced that No Man's Sky is out now for Xbox One and brings multiplayer to the series for the first time, as well as many more updates.
With the release on Xbox One, the PlayStation 4 and PC versions of the game have also been updated with the same multiplayer update, in fact all three versions of the game now have a heap of new features, including:
Multiplayer
Team up with a small team of friends and explore the universe together or be joined by random travellers. Help friends to stay alive, or prey on others to survive. Build tiny shelters or complex colonies that are shared for all players. Fight as a pirate or a wingman in epic space battles with friends and enemies. Race exocraft across weird alien terrains, creating race tracks and trails to share online. Character customisation allows you to personalise your appearance.
Visual Overhaul
The game is fully playable in third or first person, both on-foot and in your ship. New Planetary rings and improved space visuals make space more beautiful than ever. Dramatically improved planetary terrain generation, ground textures, water and clouds bring the environment to life. There’s also significantly more detail added to ships, NPCs and buildings.
Unlimited Base Building
Bases can now be built anywhere on any planet. Base building has dramatically increased in complexity and size limits and we’ve added hundreds of new base parts. You can also own multiple bases.
Command Freighters
Assemble and upgrade a fleet of frigates and command them from the bridge of your freighter. Send your fleet out to into the universe or deploy them to help you as you explore a specific system. The improved freighter base building allows a truly custom capital ship. Invite your friends aboard and take on challenging multiplayer missions from the Galactic Commission Station on your bridge.
