NO MAN’S SKY NEXT
Best Multiplayer and Co-Op Games of July 2018
When No Man’s Sky released back in August 2016, it was met with public disappointment and professional criticism. Tons of things that were promised to be included in the game during development were missing upon release. Reddit user Cymen90 made a cohesive list in 2016 of everything that was missing, including:
- Interactions with other players.
- Large-scale multiplayer battles.
- Ship classes.
- Complex animal AI.
- …and much more.
However, last month a new and massive update hit No Man’s Sky adding and changing tons of things about the game. Called the NEXT update, it offered extensive base-building, third-person, an overhaul on the graphics, and most importantly, multiplayer. Now you and three friends can team up to explore or fight, and random strangers can be found within worlds as well. You can also build an outpost with farms or even a racetrack to make use of. Multiplayer missions are also available through the Galactic Commission Station on your bridge. All co-op in No Man’s Sky is online, with no local co-op offered.
The No Man’s Sky NEXT update released on July 24 for PC, Xbox One, and PS4.
