Fully customizable Corvette-class ship
The main highlight of the Voyagers update 6.0 is the introduction of the massive Corvette-class starships. These are fully customizable, giving you the freedom to design your ship however you want.
You have to visit the Corvette Workshop by docking at any space station, and then head to the specialized workshop to craft your ship.
You can choose and assemble from hundreds of custom module parts, including hull plates, connectors, habitation modules, wings, and cockpits. Every ship has a traversable and three-dimensional interior, allowing fluid movement from the cockpit to chambers. You may also add glass windows for the stunning views of the cosmos while decorating with new furnishings.
Go multiplayer with NMS Voyagers update 6.0
The latest update doubles down on multiplayer aspects of No Man’s Sky. You can bring your friends on board your starship, assign them roles, coordinate from the Mission Radar, and embark on missions while harvesting rare resources, taking on sentinels, or treasure hunting, mimicking a real crew.
The limited-time Corvette Expedition also gives you a unique starting point. With your old ship downed, assemble and upgrade a Corvette to complete objectives, unlock powerful modules, and secure your place in the universe.
You can park your ship in a planet’s atmosphere, open the hatch, leap out to use your jetpack to soften the landing, and begin your new planetary journey.
Performance and visual upgrades
The new Voyagers update has also brought along several performance and visual upgrades.
The new order-independent transparency rendering has made aquariums, cockpits, and windows look more realistic than ever. Hero Lighting ensures gorgeous custom photos and dynamic in-game visuals.
For PC players with RTX cards, NVIDIA DLSS 4 ensures an experience with superior performance and image quality, especially if you’re playing within VR.
You can also unlock a five-piece set (helmet, armor, gloves, legs, boots) to mix and match styles and complete limited-time objectives to claim unique items, such as the luminescent Plasma Starship Trail to the mecha-mouse companion that has its own headlamp.
New tech and navigation
With this new update, you can set your destination by marking any station or planet as an autopilot target. Then, the Corvette ship will auto-travel while you roam the deck or just take in the view from a glass dome.
Advanced Modules have been introduced—install reactors, shields, engines, and other high-tech upgrades to fine-tune ship stats and handling. Larger builds will move differently than agile corvettes, so keep experimenting with modules to create your perfect ride.
