No Man’s Sky Gets a New Big “Orbital” Update!
Get Your Hands On the New No Man’s Sky Update!
Even if you are a hardcore fan of the great adventure/sandbox game No Man’s Sky you are probably still surprised that this awesome space simulator gets FREE updates even after 8 years since its release in 2016. The new update 4.6 (called Orbital) landed recently to deliver the upgraded versions of space stations, an ability to customize and recycle your starships from scratch and boost your merchant guild experience.
As usual, the new features are accompanied by a ton of patch notes to improve this almost ideal game to another level. What makes this update totally special is that the fans didn’t expect to get it all, so consider this a huge spring surprise from Hello Games.
What’s New Landed With the Orbital Update?
The Orbital update for No Man’s Sky presents a major change in stations located in outer space, displaying more modern exteriors and also redesigned interiors. The refreshment of station insides extends to their use too, providing better utilities. These are like improved interactions with guilds and merchants where players can exchange donations for reputation in guilds.
Now, players can design almost any non-exclusive starship found in No Man’s Sky because they can gather parts from wrecked ships on different planets. This change lets the player avoid the randomness of finding their perfect starship and moves away from just exploration that many fans thought would stop customization of starships from being possible within the game.
Also, gamers can expect secure discounts on goods from the races they have good relations with. One of the most remarkable additions in the Orbital update is the ability for players to build their starships. This feature can be accessed through a unique terminal found within space stations.
