No Man’s Sky has today launched update 3.63 on all platforms, so here’s the full list of changes and fixes with this patch. No Man’s Sky Frontiers hasn’t launched all that long ago and thus has had players exploring and creating settlements of their own. With so many playing though, there’s been a host of bugs found (as to be expected from a game of this scale). With so many to tackle though, Hello Games has been diligent in ensuring the game is polished and up to date. Today’s update is merely the latest of those efforts. Without further adieu, here’s all that’s new with No Man’s Sky update 3.63!
