No Man’s Sky’s 19th update, Outlaws, releases today

Sean Murray, Hello Games:

Last month saw our first major No Man’s Sky update of 2022, the Sentinel update, and it’s been so exciting to see our PlayStation community powering up their combat mechs and joining the fight against these new threats and challenges in such large numbers.

Today we’re pleased to announce our next and 19th update! The Outlaws update launches today across PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation VR, featuring smuggling, improved space combat, your own recruitable squadron, a new expedition, and the introduction of the first new starship to No Man’s Sky since the Living Ship two years ago.

how much money are they spending on these free updates is beyond me, I would have expected them to announce a new game by now :)

CaptainHenry916744d ago

The new game will be Starfield. Sean Murray isn't done with No man sky

BrainSyphoned743d ago

Or Starfield will be the launch version of No Man's Sky.

neutralgamer1992743d ago

Captain

I feel like this is free live service game done right

Stanjara743d ago

Why would they do that??? It is absolutely fantastic that they are still updating this game. Much better than what Blizzard is doing with Overwatch 2, which is to pay full price for an update.

SDuck743d ago

hm let me see... How else will they make money?

Godmars290743d ago

Blizzard's kind of gutted at this point Hoss.

EvertonFC743d ago

"The last campfire" is awesome

Knushwood Butt743d ago

Yep, Last Campfire is a great little game.

neutralgamer1992743d ago (Edited 743d ago )

They are putting big time multi billion dollar companies to shame. EA gave up on mass effect Andromeda and anthem so soon after launch and CDPR can't seem to really fix cyberpunk 2077 properly. Marvel avengers can't seem to do justice to the IP

At launch this was a mess but no one can deny what a redemption story this has been

I keep saying this will be the one I go back, but they are just the redemption story of the last 10 years in gaming. I was one of the suckers on day 1 who was fooled.

SDuck743d ago

Something told me off ever since I first saw the trailers. I tried talking my friend out of the hype train but failed. You know how that ended up for him. Nowadays however, I respect the hell out of this game

The_DFO743d ago

I was able to enjoy the game for what it was at launch (on PC in 2016) because I didn't get on the hype train. I saw it as a passion project from a very small studio, and it hit the sweet spot of what I was looking for at the time: a chill exploration experience with a lot of untapped potential.

Of all the games I've bought, this one has had the best return on investment.

sagapo743d ago

I am truly amazed by what this game has become. All these free updates, how is HelloGames making money??

Godmars290743d ago

The game's still selling maybe?

sagapo743d ago

Probably, but enough to finance all these updates? This game is like 6 years old. But hey, I’m not complaining tho 😁

Knushwood Butt743d ago

Anyone know if you can play in PSVR on PS5?

SullysCigar743d ago

Hell yes - although you'll need to order the free camera adapter from Sony by entering your PSVR serial number online. It plugs into the PS5 and you plug the camera into it.

NMS has an unlocked resolution so looks loads better on PS5 in VR. You're in for a treat! Same for other games, like Star Wars Squadrons and Dreams.

Knushwood Butt743d ago

Awesome, thanks.

I really need to fire up Dreams in VR. I have that, but have been eyeing NMS for a long time.

The game that keeps on giving 🦾🥳✌️

Christopher29d ago

The support they've given this game only makes me more interested in their next game.

Zeke6829d ago

Agree, curious what they are cooking up for that one?!

The 10 PSVR 2 Games You Should Own

If you're wanting more PSVR 2 support, you should probably buy all of these games.

Speak with your wallet!

Profchaos39d ago

Bit rich to have to buy games you don't want because you want Sony to support the expensive headset they sold us which cost as much as the console it runs on beyond paying third partys to support it.
Seriously in terms of first party we have horizon on day 1 and a gt 7 vr mode.

They seemingly have made little effort to support it beyond paying Capcom to make re games in VR or a second party studio to make firewall which was mismanaged.

I'm a day 1 psvr2 user and the only thing I'm excited for right now is PC support.

I commented recently this bespoke VR game development model we have right now clearly doesn't work

crazyCoconuts39d ago

On the one hand I feel like there's been plenty of smaller non-AAA games to play and occupy me as a supplement to my flat screen gaming.
But I agree that Sony has done nothing to elevate this beyond the niche it's in and into the mainstream where it would be economical to create AAA games for it.

Babadook738d ago (Edited 38d ago )

Most of these games are worth owning for most people; I own all but 2 of them in fact. So I agree with kevco33. I think you're crazy if you downplay this list quite frankly. Sony can't keep funding software if people don't buy any of it, the ball is squarely in OUR court.

Sony has spent a lot on 3rd party stuff this gen like RE.

phoenixwing39d ago (Edited 39d ago )

Saving up for the headset is my first hurdle. Let alone buying games I don't want lol

mudakoshaka38d ago

People downvoting you for not having enough finances...what a world we live in, haha

phoenixwing38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

@mudako
They feel affronted at the very thought that I don't plunk down 500 immediately lol I have a little over 900 games in my backlog I've been buying games instead of hardware ever since I got my PC and ps5. I just don't know if vr is really for me honestly. Every time I have a couple hundred allocated to video games it makes more sense to buy a bunch of flat games instead of vr ones

mudakoshaka39d ago

I have 9 out of these 10 games. I try to buy all the VR games I like to support the advancement of VR!

TheEroica38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

I spoke with my wallet after watching the first headset get weak support. Easy pass until Sony earns my money. Feel bad for those who parted with 500 bucks, falling for the hype that Sony was actually gonna support this thing.

Neonridr39d ago

I own 7 of these titles off the list, lol.

NotoriousWhiz39d ago

I'm trying to decide if it's worth holding onto my psvr 2. I enjoy what it has currently, but it seems unlikely to get anything else. Might be better off just waiting for something with more support if that ever comes.

Profchaos38d ago

As a fellow psvr2 owner the question seemingly comes down to do you own a PC.

I think I'm all in I have a habit to hold onto my systems anyhow I still have my psvr1 to hell I still have my NES.

But while it's still worth something yeah you could sell it and if Sony turns the ship around you should be able to buy another one for less than you soldmit for I feel like we won't see any fix for the headset for the next 2 years rumours show that Sony has no current first party VR games in active development after they closed London studios

The whole psvr2 situation has left me feeling a little burnt on PlayStation as a whole to be honest. The first psvr felt experimental but it was supported far more than this superior headset

MIDGETonSTILTS1739d ago

GT7 surprised me, because I hate racing games, but i poured 100 hours into it way too quickly.

I’m looking forward to the Metro VR game this year, and I hope that WW2 dogfighter game releases eventually.

talocaca39d ago

I have most of them 😅

Waiting for a sale on Synapse and Arizona Sunshine 2.....also Metro coming this year looks great.
