ABOUT THIS GAME
Inspired by the adventure and imagination we love from classic science-fiction, No
Man’s Sky presents you with a galaxy to explore, filled with unique planets and
lifeforms, constant danger and action.
In No Man’s Sky, every star is the light of a distant sun, each orbited by planets
filled with life, and you can go to any of them you choose. Fly smoothly from deep
space to planetary surfaces, with no loading screens, and no limits. In this
infinite procedurally generated universe, you’ll discover places and creatures that
no other players have seen before – and perhaps never will again.
