Key Points:
- No Man’s Sky, developed by Hello Games, recently celebrated its tenth anniversary, marking a decade of continuous free updates that have expanded and improved the game since its 2016 launch.
- The latest update, Cosmos, released on September 9, introduces major new features including the ability to fly into the sun and suffer damage, adding a novel gameplay element.
- A standout addition in the Cosmos update is the ability for players to claim and build bases in open space, such as on asteroids or space stations, rather than being limited to planets.
- Establishing a space base requires significant investment, costing one billion units and a reputation level of 40, making it a prestigious achievement within the game.
- Space bases can serve strategic purposes, like acting as operational hubs at warp points, or serve as status symbols by being placed in highly trafficked areas for other players to see.
