Developer Hello Games has released a new trailer for its upcoming fantasy exploration title, "No Man's Sky".
The 90-second trailer, titled "Infinite Worlds," is a glimpse of how the almost-limitless universe in the game looks like. One of the main features of "No Man's Sky" is that, technically, there is no end to the in-game world, as the developer says that it was conceived for at least 18 quintillion planets that gives every gamer at least 10 planets to discover and explore.
The trailer focuses on several environments present in each of the planets, from vast underwater locations filled with numerous and ready-to-be identified sea creatures, to the massive on-land landscapes teeming with wildlife. There is also an appearance of robot-like creatures, which, according to the developer, acts as the planet's sentient guardians.
The footage also highlights how the gameplay works in terms of world exploration and space battles.
"No Man's Sky" is a sci-fi, fantasy space exploration game that places players as explorers in a vast galaxy, with infinite, procedurally generated planets. This means that instead of a set boundary of rules for each of planet, an algorithm generates random features for a newly-discovered worlds, making each planet unique from one another. Players can stake their claim on planets and use the resources for growth. Using the planet's resources, players can also trade with other planets, or ultimately build up an army, both for defense and territory expansion.
Although the new trailer has been released, which means that the game is coming soon, Hello Games still remains silent on its exact rollout date. This makes observers speculate the launch of "No Man's Sky" to occur toward the latter part of the year, at the end of fall or when the holiday starts.
