The game, which has just been released on Xbox Game Pass, opens to new audiences and allows the entire community to enjoy multiplayer.
From hell to the sky of the stars. No Man’s Sky debuted on PlayStation 4 and PC surrounded by controversy, but independent studio Hello Games has worked hard to reverse the situation. In addition to numerous updates, which will continue throughout the year 2020, the developer has just announced one of the most demanded features, cross-platform gaming. That being the case, the system you are playing on will not matter, since everyone will be able to play together from now on.
“We have been busy working on something else secret for the past few months, something that will allow the entire community to benefit from the influx of new players brought by Game Pass.” This is crossplay, so players will have the opportunity to visit places that they had only been able to see through videos. Right now, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC users can “explore, travel, survive, build and market together.” Hello Games is proud that No Man’s Sky will “join” a “very small” set of titles that allow for cross-multiplayer play.

Migration to a new network
The study admits that they have worked very hard to get this update ready, since they have had to modify the technology and some systems. The game has been moved to a new architecture network, which will provide them with greater flexibility for the future, as well as the desired cross-game functionality. Still, the work doesn’t end here. The team continues to develop new content, some small and others much larger.
For Hello Games, expanding the audience for No Man’s Sky and allowing them all to play together is something they’ve been thinking about for a while now. “We are fortunate to have the best community”, so “it is a joy to let them play together. The question is, who have you always wanted to play with? “
