Developer Hello Games hinted at a new update coming in August potentially to substantially update the game to higher standards. The information released said:
"We want to extend our gratitude to everyone who has contributed to the Mercury Subroutine so far," the statement reads.
"We hope you have enjoyed the successful distribution of 180 Access IDs, and we hope you will also appreciate the other interesting artifacts we have in store for you going forward.
"We intend to keep the process alive until the completion of Project Waking Titan in August.
"It is important to mention that we are very excited by the coming Phases 2 and 3. Input from the Mercury Subroutine will pave the way toward new experiences in version 1.3 of a familiar universe.
"We look forward to the successful conclusion of this ground-breaking experiment. Regards. S.M."
The last big No Man's Sky PS4 and PC update was dubbed Pathfinder. The Pathfinder Update added new planetary vehicles, base sharing, PS4 Pro support, ship/weapon specialisation, permadeath mode, and much more. Hello Games also made various visual improvements, and added a new photo mode.The screenshot tool lets players change the time of day, increase or decrease fog and cloud levels, unlock their camera for new angles, and add filters.
Now, this all good and well but I just don't think anyone is listening to them any more. Has anyone fired this game up in the last 6 to 12 months? Such a shame any game has to end this way but they should be thinking of saving money right now and putting it towards their next title, if they get the chance to make another game.
