by

Hello Games, the developers behind No Man’s Sky, continue to stand firm in their commitment to updating their open-world adventure game. Recently, they released a new update, marking their first major content release in January 2025 with the Worlds II update. This expansion brought about new biomes and terrains primarily thanks to the advanced technology incorporated into their game engine.

In their latest major content release, titled “Relics”, players can now immerse themselves in a paleontological adventure by unearthing ancient fossils that can be reassembled into complete skeletons. These skeletons can then be employed to create fascinating fossil exhibits and engage in encounters with stone guardians. The developers have also shared the patch notes for this update, outlining the new content, as well as all modifications and enhancements made to the base game and the content update.

In the latest update for No Man’s Sky, players on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox consoles, Mac computers, Steam, and Xbox Game Pass can now explore the realm of paleontology. This exciting new feature allows them to discover and collect various “fossilized remains,” which they can use in numerous imaginative ways. These remains can be unearthed from dig sites, including skulls, ribcages, limbs, and even a diverse assortment of tails and tailbones. Additionally, players might stumble upon unique fossils, some of which could hold great worth.

In other words, a new professional in the field who specializes as a fossil collector is often encountered at space stations. They barter these fossils they find to get ones they don’t have yet for their collection. These Fossil Collectors enjoy negotiating vigorously to secure the best trades and eventually use them to create grand exhibits.

Despite the risks posed by formidable stone adversaries like titan worms and other dangers, these precious “ancient fossils” and bones discovered at excavation sites are carefully protected. These brave individuals gather these artifacts for their collection, opening up countless opportunities to reveal and exhibit unique species that could number in the millions. Joining the Galactic Palaeology Society offers them the chance to embark on this thrilling journey, uncover hidden secrets yet undiscovered until now.

In the latest update, the Relics expansion offers extra content to explore, including active upgrade stations hidden inside dilapidated space stations, treasures within salvaged crates, and advanced technologies buried in planets for discovery. Purple star systems are now more clearly visible on the map, and players can uncover new recipes using bone items that offer various benefits such as improved health, protective properties, or versatile uses upon completion of the Relics mission. This expedition concludes with a special reward item.
