No Man's Sky: Beyond Announcement Trailer [ESRB]

Hello Games founder Sean Murray notes that that might sound familiar, but that "we don't consider No Man's Sky to be an MMO".

What Hello Games was willing to share was that Beyond will be three major updates rolled into one mega-release (and, as always, it will be free for everyone who owns No Man's Sky).

If ever there was a case of a video game redeeming itself, No Man's Sky would be at the top of that list.

The first of these updates is called No Man's Sky Online, and though specific gameplay details remain light for now, Murray says that it "includes a radical new social and multiplayer experience which empowers players everywhere in the universe to meet and play together".

The unprecedented shootings have been confirmed as an act of terror by NZ's Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern . Nine people from India or of Indian origin have gone missing , the Indian envoy in New Zealand has said.

Hello Games said it will share more information about each individual component when it knows it can be precise.

Few games can boast such a big turnaround as No Man's Sky.

No Man's Sky: Beyond is the next evolution of what began with the game's last major update, No Man's Sky NEXT, which introduced the beginning of Hello Games' multiplayer plan, a third-person perspective, and much more. It will remain free for all players, won't contain microtransactions, and won't require a subscription (aside from Xbox Live Gold or PS Plus on consoles).

No Man's Sky Online is one component of a three-pronged update dubbed No Man's Sky: Beyond. Beyond is Hello Game's most ambitious update yet. We'll continue to support No Man's Sky in this way for the foreseeable future. I'm assuming this means that everyone won't exist on servers, where you could potentially run into hundreds or thousands of players all flying around the same instance, but it's not clear yet.
