The upcoming adventure survival video game "No Man's Sky" was recently announced to be coming to the PlayStation 4 starting June 21. The announcement came through the official PlayStation blog.
Sean Murray, managing director for Hello Games, said, "Hello PlayStation.Blog! I'm Sean Murray from Hello Games, part of the team making No Man's Sky, with some exciting news for you: No Man's Sky is launching on June 21st!"
Murray added, "We've been a little quiet since we showed the game last year at E3, and it's because we've been heads down and hard at work on development. It's been a hectic but really exciting time for the team. Finishing a game is incredibly hard but lovely to watch as the pieces fall into place."
The upcoming game is set in an open universe, which is made out of 18 quintillion planets, complete with their own environment. Some are harsh and some are livable. Players can then explore each and everyone of them.They can also trade and fight in order to survive.
According to the announcement, Hello Games, the developer and publisher, held some demo time for press members and was satisfied with the first-timers' positive reactions. The guests were even trying to learn the alien language so they could communicate better.
The Hello Games team is pretty much excited and is undoubtedly looking forward to seeing the gaming community try it out and finding out their reactions.
