Originally released back in August 2016, No Man's Sky was an infamous critical disappointment upon its initial launch, but it's come an absurdly long way in the last eight years. With over 25 major content updates now under its belt, No Man's Sky hasn't just become the game that its developers had always promised it would be, but one that's managed to transcend that initial vision entirely, so much so that it looks and feels like a completely different, but much better game. Base building, multiplayer, NPC questlines, story missions, and a whole lot more have been added to No Man's Sky since launch, and it's still being updated.
