No Man’s Sky: Cosmos gives space a new sense of life

The Cosmos update for No Man’s Sky was announced as a free download for existing PlayStation players on September 9. Hello Games describes a major reworking of space exploration, adding asteroid belts, wrecks, outposts and new anomalies.

A solar-system map helps players find the expanded points of interest. Large derelict structures can be salvaged, while space stations, star bases and player alliances form part of the update’s wider ambition. The studio frames Cosmos as a way to make the journey through a system more substantial in its own right.
