No Man’s Sky’s next major free update is here

No Man’s Sky is the gift that keeps on giving. Just one month after its last major patch (the Fractal Update), Hello Games have simultaneously announced and released their next major update – Interceptor – bringing with it new planets; enemies; improvements and so much more all for the low price of ‘free’

As with pretty much every other No Man’s Sky update, patch 4.2 – the Interceptor Update – brings with it a whole host of improvements as well as a great deal of additional content, with the team saying:

“Explore corrupted planets, fight a legion of challenging new robotic guardians, hijack their technology, steal their ships, harvest their resources, destroy their freighters, and much, much more!” with just some of the more notable changes and additions including:

  • Corrupted Worlds
  • Evolving Story 
  • New Ship Class 
  • Sentinel Jetpack 
  • Abandoned Camps 
  • Robot Spiders 
  • Improved Combat 
  • Sentinel Weaponry 
  • Stealth Enemies 
  • Capital Ship Battles 
  • Custom Wonders 
  • VR Improvements
  • New Animations
  • Additional Character Customisation

With every No Man’s Sky update it feels as though Hello Games have overhauled the title – and patch 4.2 is no different. The No Man’s Sky Interceptor Update is available right now and the full patch notes can be found HERE.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
