Sean takes a deep dive into Worlds Part I, the latest (free) update for No Man's Sky, which offers a complete refresh of the universe, a massive increase in the variety of flora and fauna, huge visual enhancements and much much more.

Everyone saying they're on a redemption arc is late. They've *finished* that redemption arc. Now, it's a victory lap.

'It's called Worlds Part 1 because there's much more to come.' Oh, my heart.

"When we started No Man's Sky, you know, I wanted people to feel like they had stepped into the cover of a science fiction novel" Looking at the gameplay on screen when Sean says this, you've definitely succeeded at this! Amazing job!

Hello Games is reaching near spiritual levels of generosity to their fans. They've transcended the industry.

Props to Sean Murray and his beautiful, inspiring positivity.
He could have become a joke.
He decided he would rather become a legend.

It's amazing how far $60M can go when it's going to a passionate indie team and not to a public mega corp whose executive makes at least as much per year. Look how long they've continued development, sustaining themselves on the massive launch 8 years ago and continued sales because of these huge free updates and growth onto newer platforms. In an era of $70 base games with $20+ skins and multiple $20-40 battle passes, this is the sort of game we should all be supporting. This is how gaming should be.

Even if I don't play No Man's Sky, I can tell it: What a genuine heartwarming studio and community here. Don't change, pls.

Picked up another copy and sent it to a friend even though he may not play it .This is the kind of developer that is worth supporting .Even after a shaky start the team have redeemed themselves and should be rewarded

Eight years later and still releasing massive, beautiful updates for free. Just blows my mind. Thanks for all your hard work.

“Every new update we want to surprise”
im glad to say you are doing really well with that statement!!!

[lazylagoon]

You know it’s good when the man himself makes a deep dive for it

[DJB]

Just wanted to say thanks again Sean and team. This update is beautiful. The work you have all put in over the years is really appreciated.

Hello Games is one of the VERY few developers I believe when they say "we're excited and passionate about what we're creating." It's been seven years almost to a day since I bought NMS and started playing, and you still manage to surprise with a new thing. Thank you.

Ships landing on water? Well that makes a lot of the water quests easier

"The update is called Worlds Part 1, because, I guess, there's much more to come"

Just under ten years ago he'd have been laughed out of the room, now all eyes are fixed on him expectantly, with an odd reverie.

Congratulations Sean, I hope No Man's Sky forever continues to be a passion project of Hello Games, because the game industry needs more passion with how companies are treated nowadays (embraced, expanded, extinguished).

[pilipinasyes]

i never comment but wanted to take the time to show support and say these guys are the real deal. to fall and get back up to not only run, but fly. true passion and care for the art and its observer.

This studio went through one of the biggest character redemption arcs I’ve seen in a long time.

[jeremyscottw]

This is honestly the game of my lifetime. I cannot wait to experience the updates. As someone who played back when the worlds were lonely and stark and the minerals were towers sticking up from the land, it is honestly incredible to see how much this game has grown, evolved, and become an absolute legend in the gaming world. I have thousands of hours in No Man's Sky, the fact that I paid $60 8 years ago and am still getting new content that can make me gasp aloud in awe, is absolutely mind blowing. Thanks to everyone on the team at Hello Games. You built something incredible. Thank you for not giving up during the tough times, and for your continuous dedication to creating an awe inspiring experience for us.

[prismgames]

This is beyond a redemption arc at this point. You guys are actual legends. I'd love to see you get an infinite budget for a passion project, that would be the most insane game ever

[Fazquel]

Good work Hello Games, as someone who has appreciated the work you've been doing since day one; please keep doing what you're doing. I'm still playing to this day and I can't say that for many games I've owned for close to a decade <3
