No Man’s Sky has received another free update, coming in the form of artificial intelligence, sort of. This new update, name Singularity, is the second chapter of the story that was first introduced in the Interceptor update.
Hello Games says the Singularity expedition focuses on the history and origin of the harmonic camps–with a mystery that touches on artificial intelligence, the will to exist, and what it means to be alive. Players will be able to build a robotic Construct and take part in a communal goal “that may shape the future.” The storyline will run for five weeks, with No Man’s Sky players uncovering clues that point to what awaits in the next update.
Singularity will also have plenty of rewards and new gear to obtain as well. There is a new cosmetic set that allows players to look like a machine, new decorations for bases, an Atlantideum filter can be added to jetpack trails, and the new Wayfarer’s helm can also be added to player closets. No Man’s Sky’s Singularity update also arrived alongside a new patch, with the notes being found here.
No Man’s Sky has seen a busy year already, as Interceptor, one of the largest updates in the game’s history, was added back in April. Several months before that, the Fractal update added support for the PS VR 2 and numerous quality-of-life adjustments.
