No Man’s Sky update brings further ship building improvements, QoL fixes and more

Like clockwork, Hello Games have once again announced and released a surprise update for No Man’s Sky. Available right now, the latest ‘Breach’ update introduces a new expedition, an expansion to the game’s ship building mechanics and more.

Making the announcement on their blog, Sean Murray and the team at Hello Games wrote: “Our update for Halloween is called Breach, and it leans into the thrill of custom ship assembly, space-walking, skydiving, and community spirit introduced in Voyagers.”

While a much smaller update when compared to the aforementioned Voyagers, this free content drop still offers plenty to explore and enjoy, including:

  • Abandoned Corvette ships to scavenge in deep space
  • New rare vertical corvette parts
  • Atlas-themed ship modules
  • Expanded space-walking
  • Multiple quality-of-life improvements
    • Enhanced snapping during ship building
    • Better collision
    • Ship painting improvements

With this patch primarily focused on the latest community expedition, the Breach update is far from the game’s biggest. Even so, there are plenty of new features and functionality to get stuck into – making what is in many ways the perfect ‘casual’ space game even more enjoyable.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
