Every Planet Procedural. Every Planet Unique.
What Is No Man's Sky?"No Man’s Sky is a game about exploration and survival in an infinite procedurally generated universe." - NMS WebsiteNo Man's Sky is a game being developed by Hello Games, an indie studio located in South London, creator of the Joe Danger series. No Man's Sky is aiming for a procedurally-generated universe - I kid you not, and entire
universe - That the player will be able to explore. From planets to plants to ships to animals,
NOTHING will be the same. Please note: We only know that there is a galaxy. Sean has mentioned once that it is possible to venture outside of the galaxy, but THIS IS A TOUCHY SUBJECT.
What Do You Do in No Man's Sky?The game has a loose goal; you start out at the edge of the galaxy on a habitable planet with only a pod and your wits. Most people might want to get to the center of it. Whether you choose to accept this goal, that's up to you.
Other than that, we're not quite sure what's in for us besides that - it's a survival situation, but we don't know how it will work. You can be a bounty hunter, a trader, a biologist, a explorer - this is, again, a touchy subject.
Which Gaming Platforms Will No Man's Sky Be On?No Man's Sky will launch on the PlayStation 4 and most likely come on the PC at a later date. The Xbox One is out of the picture, as Hello Games haven't spoken about it.
Last-generation consoles (PS3, Xbox 360) are out of the question. Wii and the Wii U are also out of the question.
MultiplayerPlayers have the ability to add planets they discover to the star map, share animals they discover, etc. It is unclear whether or not you will meet another player in game, but it is unlikely that you will considering the size of the game's universe. A more traditional multiplayer, however, is going to be added after launch.
