No Man’s Sky heading to Switch in October, physical version confirmed, new trailer

No Man’s Sky has received a final release date on Switch, with Hello Games revealing that the port will be ready to go on October 7, 2022.

For those that haven’t been keeping up with the title, No Man’s Sky is a science fiction exploration experience that takes place in a procedurally generated universe. It has an almost infinite number of never-before-seen planets and star systems to explore, each one teeming with life to be discovered. The game features exploration, crafting, building, trading, and fighting.

No Man’s Sky has been around since 2016, and has received lots of updates since then. The Switch version will include “everything that was possible and applicable to be crammed in from those updates, as well as continuous updates in the future delivering new content.”

Hello Games founder Sean Murray said of today’s news:

“I think folks are going to be blown away when they finally get to play this game on such a tiny device. It really is an entire universe in the palm of your hand. It has been a huge undertaking, but a very rewarding one for our small team, and I’m really proud of the result.”

A trailer promoting the release date news for No Man’s Sky on Switch can be found below.

No Man’s Sky will be available both physically and digitally on Switch later this year.
