No Man’s Sky developer Hello Games has been dedicated to expanding and improving the space survival game ever since its launch nearly a decade ago, and while those updates will continue in the foreseeable future, the studio has other things it’s been working on as well. At The Game Awards, Hello Games founder and boss Sean Murray took the stage to unveil Light No Fire, the studio’s next game, which he says is going to be just as massive and ambitious as No Man’s Sky, echoing previous similar statements.
Light No Fire will be set on a planet the size of Earth, with the unique twists of being highly stylized and fantastical, populated by lush and gorgeous environments, all manner of creatures and monsters, and more. The multiplayer title will use procedural generation, implement survival and building mechanics, and be played from a first person perspective, so it certainly shares some of its DNA with No Man’s Sky. Check out its stunning announcement trailer below, which showcases in-engine gameplay footage.
There’s no word on when Light No Fire will announce, or which platforms it’s in development for.
