No Man's Sky is Hello Games' space exploration and survival game set in a massive, procedurally generated universe containing quintillions of planets. Players travel between planets with spaceships, gather resources and craft, build bases, trade and engage in diplomacy with alien species, and can encounter other players (in the same universe, though usually on different planets). Facing severe criticism at launch over the gap between promised and delivered content, the game has been fundamentally transformed through years of free, major updates (Foundation, NEXT, Origins, and dozens more), becoming one of gaming history's most talked-about 'redemption stories.'
