One of the most impressive things about the No Man’s Sky redemption is that Hello Games never seems truly satisfied. Not content with merely righting the ship and delivering on its initial promises, the developer continues to unleash update after update, pushing what’s already PC’s best space sandbox game to new and greater heights. Next on the list is something rather fitting for Halloween seasons, as the especially creepy new event No Man’s Sky: The Cursed is unleashed upon the universe, bringing battles “at a scale not seen before.” Continue reading New No Man’s Sky update The Cursed tears apart the very fabric of reality MORE FROM PCGAMESN: Best RPG games, Best open-world games, Best space games
