No Man’s Sky Update Adds Starfield-Style Customizable Corvette Ships and Spacewalking

Since its rocky launch in 2016, No Man’s Sky has transformed into one of gaming’s greatest comeback stories—thanks to 32 free updates over nine years. The latest patch, Voyagers, may be the most ambitious yet, bringing customizable Corvette-class ships, spacewalking freedom, and major performance upgrades.

🛠 Starfield-inspired Customizable Corvette-Class Starships

A brand-new Corvette starship class is now available, offering:
- Fully furnished interiors for multiple passengers.
- A Corvette Workshop for building and editing ships piece by piece.
- Hundreds of snappable modules including wings, engines, hulls, and decorative items.
- Habitation modules (Titan, Thunderbird, Ambassador) with unique aesthetics.
- Multi-story layouts with internal stairways.
- Functional add-ons like Nutrition Units, Refiners, and Mission Radars.

Modules can be found in derelict freighters, pirate wrecks, crashed ships, salvage containers, and mission rewards.

🌌 Spacewalking

For the first time, players can step outside their ships in zero gravity and float around the hull. Unlike freighters—where you’re tethered by a gravitational field—Corvettes allow true EVA-style exploration, giving players cinematic moments in deep space.

🎮 New Expedition & Multiplayer Missions

• Expedition 19: Corvette runs for six weeks and encourages players to construct their first Corvette.

• Rewards include exclusive decals, posters, a plasma starship trail, the vigilant jetpack trail, and the Mecha-Mouse robotic companion.

• Corvette-specific multiplayer missions allow crews to put their custom starships to the test.

🧑‍🚀 New Gear: Skyborn Exosuit & Jetpack

The update also adds:
- Skyborn Exosuit (5 pieces) — armor, gloves, boots, legs, and torso customization.
- Skyborn Jetpack — available via the Appearance Modifier.

📺 Twitch Drops Return

By tuning into Twitch streams and linking accounts, players can earn:
- Exotic base parts
- High-tech starships

- Cosmetic appearance items

⚡ Performance & Quality of Life Enhancements

The update also overhauls visuals and performance with:
- Support for NVIDIA DLSS4, PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), and Intel XeSS 2.
- Faster load times, smoother VR performance, and optimized memory usage.
- Improved rendering of ships, lighting, cloud shadows, translucent surfaces, and effects.
- Fixes for numerous multiplayer crashes and gameplay bugs.

📝 Final Thoughts

The Voyagers update elevates No Man’s Sky yet again, blending spacewalking, fully customizable Corvette-class ships, and sweeping performance improvements. Nearly a decade after launch, Hello Games continues to redefine what their space exploration sandbox can be.
