No Man’s Sky is procedurally generated, but we always want it to have a unique recognisable style, to look like a science fiction book cover come to life. This is only possible because of our super-talented art team. When we talk about No Man’s Sky, we like to talk about the maths involved in creating...View Article
Last month saw the biggest reveal for the game since our nerve-wracking debut at the VGX Awards. We showed a small demo to hundreds of journalists from around the world, who called the game “breathtakingly beautiful” (Wired) and “insanely exciting” (io9). It was lovely to show the game to real people – including IGN as part...View Article
We have some exciting news to share! We’re doing IGN First once again, making No Man’s Sky the only game to do so for a second time. Needless to say, we’re honoured! It’s kicking off with easily the biggest look at the game to date. Sean recently sat down with IGN’s Ryan McCaffrey to present...View Article
Even now, it’s surreal to think that our favourite band – 65daysofstatic – is helping create the procedural sounds of our universe, and even more so that their official album for the game – ‘No Man’s Sky: Music for an Infinite Universe’ – will be available for purchase soon! It’s debuting alongside the game this summer, and...View Article
Over the last few weeks, we were very proud, excited (and a little terrified!) to give people a taste of what to expect from No Man’s Sky. As well as seeing online and mainstream media from around the world, we were fortunate to have two of the biggest magazines – Official PlayStation Magazine UK and PC...View Article
Since E3 last year, we’ve been a little quiet on showing No Man’s Sky. There’s a good reason for that – behind the scenes the team has been very hard at work at making the game as good as it can be as we come towards the end of development. Needless to say there’s been...View Article
After a busy few months at E3 and Paris Games Week, we unfortunately couldn’t be out in full force at PlayStation Experience this year, but we still wanted something cool to show at the event. Sean recently had the chance to show the game to none other than Mr. Worldwide Studios himself, Shuhei Yoshida (!)...View Article
October was a very busy month for Hello Games. We kicked it off with a visit to the Big Apple, where Sean presented the game to Stephen Colbert on CBS’s The Late Show. Stephen is one of the first to explore the game’s massive universe, so we wanted to give him the personal touch with...View Article
So we’ve come to the end of IGN’s month of things about No Man’s Sky! We’ve been really proud of what we’ve been able to share, and hope you’ve enjoyed it all. We’ve closed it today with Sean answering some IGN community members’ questions, including the big one … which we’re super sorry that we can’t...View Article
We kick off a whole month of videos and articles with something that’s hopefully really interesting: 18 minutes of flowing gameplay, as Sean takes IGN’s Ryan McCaffrey along a journey on a world, showing him some of the things you can do there, before jetting out into the stars. There is also an angry goat....View Article
