Hello Games has dropped a new No Man’s Sky update. Available to download now on all platforms, this is a follow up to last week’s major free Outlaws expansion.
No Man’s Sky update 3.87 includes a list of bug fixes targeting recently added features such as smuggling and being able to carry out pirate raids.
The meaty Outlaws DLC allows players to cause all kinds of mischief among the stars. It also makes a wider number of improvements to the game’s space combat.
