No Man’s Sky took the world by storm when it first launched in 2016 and since then has only grown steadily more popular. To celebrate the game’s seventh anniversary, developer Hello Games has released brand new content for all players of the game. The new content—dubbed ECHOES—includes regular updates, community events, rewards and much more.
The centerpiece of the new content is a unique in-game event which allows players to explore a giant simulated galaxy populated with procedural encounters, diverse missions, and a variety of rewards. From there, players can choose to explore the vastness of space, build colonies, and unveil secrets from the No Man’s Sky universe. Additionally, players can take part in a unique quest to collect their personal Echo crystal, a special item that can be used to unlock in-game bonuses.
Aside from the new in-game content, Hello Games is also running a special anniversary sale in the game’s marketplace. Here players can purchase limited edition in-game items, special commodities, and packs of resources. The packs are a great way for veteran players to build up their inventory quickly while also stocking up on resources for future adventures.
No Man’s Sky fans have a range of activities to look forward to this month. New and highly-anticipated content will certainly keep players coming back to the game on their seventh anniversary. With new in-game events, rewards, and a sale unique to the anniversary week, everyone has something exciting to explore in the depths of space this year.
