Summary
Hello Games has released the latest update forNo Man’s Skyto add two features, cross saves and cloud saves, that have been requested by the community for years.No Man’s Skyis an ever-expanding science-fiction game with a strong emphasis on exploration. While the title initially debuted May 19, 2025, it has received regular updates over the last eight years, often adding major systems and new content to the space game.
InNo Man’s Sky, players take on the role of a Traveler. The opening hours see the player stranded on a random planet. With few resources and a broken ship, one must gather materials, craft parts, and repair their spacecraft before taking off into the sky. While its initial moments may lean heavily on the game’s survival elements, they quickly dissipate into the background as players become galaxy-hopping adventurers with an incredible amount of freedom. To keep the community coming back for more,Hello Games regularly releases Expeditions forNo Man’s Sky. These are limited-time events with brief storylines and exclusive rewards.
With the latest update toNo Man’s Sky, the developers have enabled cloud saving, cross-saves, and PS5 Pro support. In astatement on the game’s official site, Hello Games wrote that “whether you play on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, or Mac, you’re able to share your progress across multiple devices.” This update is coming hot off the heels ofNo Man’s Sky’s recent “Aquarius” update.
No Man’s Sky’s Cross-Save Offers New Freedom to Players
Players will have the ability to upload five of theirNo Man’s Skyfiles to the cloud. While the game has allowed the community to interact across multiple platforms for quite some time, the ability to transfer save files has remained elusive. The new feature also applies to Twitch drops, adding even more value to exclusive rewards. The ability to transfer save data is also particularly helpful for those upgrading from PS4 to PS5, as it allows them to bring over their files seamlessly. This has been requested by the community for quite some time. The feature is especially exciting forNo Man’s Skyplayers who spend countless hours building impressive bases.
The ability to carry over save files could have a large impact on theNo Man’s Skycommunity. For instance, PC players have been able to modify their data to unlock special mods or features for quite some time. With the ability to upload those files to the cloud, it’s possible (though not confirmed) that console players could gain access to modified save data. The new feature also enables players to engage withNo Man’s Skyacross any platform they wish. This could encourage the community to purchase multiple copies of the title, which may drive up sales. With this update, Hello Games has continued its longstanding tradition ofmeeting the needs and requests ofNo Man’s Skyplayers.
No Man’s Sky
WHERE TO PLAY
Lose yourself in a vast sci-fi odyssey as you explore a near-infinite, procedurally generated universe. Set out from the edge of the Euclid galaxy and carve out your own interstellar existence in a vast universe teeming with life, danger and near-endless mystery. No Man’s Sky is a hugely-ambitious, heavily-stylised, sci-fi adventure that spans entire galaxies all brought to life with procedural generation. Travel through an endless array of increasingly diverse and dangerous star systems, prospecting for rare materials, trading with alien life, populate planets and searching for clues to the meaning of the universe’s mysterious existence. How you survive is up to you. Assemble entire fleets of dreadnought-class freighters and tear across the universe; build sprawling habitable bases across planet surfaces, beneath the ground or under the ocean; buy and upgrade your own weapons and star ships and do battle with outlaw space pirates, hostile alien fauna or the mysterious sentinel fleets. The universe is yours to explore - trillions upon trillions of planets, waiting to be discovered.
