Hello Games’ No Man’s Sky saw an upsurge in popularity lately thanks to the recently released Atlas Rises update. Not only did it add a whole bunch of new features like procedurally generated missions and the ability to teleport to one’s ship but also brought more than 30 hours of story content to the experience and some form of co-op to the game.
Of course, it also brought its fair share of bugs. That’s what patch 1.33 is for – it’s currently out for PS4 and PC, fixing a number of issues like mission audio and trees spawning through buildings. It also provides improved audio for the ending of the Atlas path and terrain editing along with improvements to vehicle boost timings.
Low flight mode handling has also been improved, the difficulty of the final armourer mission has been reduced and cases of terrain editing changes being lost when reloading a save have also been minimized.
You can check out some of the patch notes below – the full notes can be viewed here. Though Atlas Rises is a significant update, Hello Games has promised much more in the coming months.
