NO MAN'S SKY (XBOX ONE XONE)

No Man's Sky is a space exploration and survival game where the player explores a vast, almost infinite universe. Starting on one of 18 quintillion planets, the player is first tasked with gathering the materials needed to repair and launch their ship into space. From there, the game is fully open, although the ultimate goal is to reach the center of the galaxy. Along the way, players can mine rare and valuable items, catalog animal and plant life, search for alien ruins and artifacts, and converse and trade items and resources with multiple alien factions that inhabit the universe. They can also engage in piracy by destroying other ships. Players use the resources they earn from these activities to create upgrades for their costume, ship, and multitools.

Each planet visited by the player is procedurally generated, with its own environmental conditions, elements, and animal and plant life. Players must update and configure their costume in order to adapt to the sometimes hostile environments. For example: cold planets will require the player to equip a heating mechanism in their suit. When visiting an unvisited planet or cataloging a new species, players are free to name them whatever they wish - these names will be seen by other players if they reach the same location, although the chances of it being very low.
