Since its controversial launch in 2016, No Man's Sky has undergone over a dozen free updates, transforming from a game that failed to come across many of its promises to a fully-realized spacefaring feel full of new activities and quality-of-life improvements across what was initially teased.

What'southward Known About No Human being'southward Sky: Frontiers So Far

Unfortunately, the trailer was vague at best in terms of what No Man's Sky: Frontiers volition actually bring to the game. In fact, piffling other than the update'south logo was shown. It'south difficult to fifty-fifty speculate on what the logo might be hinting at, as well, given the vagueness of its blueprint: Frontiers logo includes a crescent moon, but not much else in the mode of distinguishing features.

The residual of the blog post was equally vague most what No Human'south Sky: Frontiers will be calculation to the game, although Murray describes it equally a "missing piece" of its sci-fi fantasy elements. This could perhaps signal that Frontiers volition introduce more magic-esque elements to its gameplay. Information technology could also be a story update, assuasive players to experience boosted narrative plotlines or quests. There are, after all, many questions about No Human being's Sky'south universe that have yet to be answered.
