No Man’s Sky has today launched update 3.73, so here’s the full list of changes and fixes with this patch. Today’s patch doesn’t add much in terms of content, instead opting to give plenty of bug fixes to refine the game. While No Man’s Sky is mostly good with their polish, a game as colossal as it is bound to have a hefty level of bugs. Getting these fixed as soon as possible should be the priority for the team. Hopefully one of the future updates coming to the title brings some bigger changes and content, perhaps giving you a reason to make your return. Without further adieu, here’s everything new with No Man’s Sky update 3.73!
