Hello Games has announced and released No Man’s Sky update 6.10 “Breach”, adding the ability for players to spacewalk and more.
Here’s a rundown on the new update, plus a trailer:
Breach Expedition
In Breach, players will traverse a desolate and abandoned universe and on their travels encounter the abandoned remains of ill-fated corvette ships, all ripe for scavenging ship modules to add to your corvette-building arsenal.
Excavating these wrecks will yield an array of corvette pieces including rare vertical parts which unlock a whole new range of build configurations for the more creative designers.
Among the exclusive expedition rewards, there is also a set of Atlas-themed modules for those wanting to demonstrate their allegiance to the all-seeing entity.
The jewel in the crown of these wreckages is the Fireship Arcadia, the fate of which you will learn as you venture through Breach. But you will have to face your fears and make a leap of faith into the black as you space-walk through these eerie systems to glean their unique remnants.
The spooky Breach Expedition embraces the darker side of the universe and will also lure the bravest Travellers towards the ominous and exotic purple-star solar systems which players first glimpsed in Worlds Part II back in January. The planets in these systems are particularly foreboding with their deep, abyssal oceans, unearthly entities and the notoriously imposing and volatile gas giants.
The Breach Expedition begins today, and will run for approximately three weeks.
Space Wreckage
In the far reaches of deep space, wrecked corvettes can now be encountered and salvaged. Step out into zero-gravity to explore these hollow hulks, and equip your Multi-Tool laser to dismantle their valuable modules – then repurpose this scrap to build your dream ship at a Corvette Workshop.
New Corvette Modules
A significant number of new corvette modules are now salvageable from deep-space corvette wrecks and planetary scrapheaps. These include new landing gear, shields, weapons, connectors, and a number of highly-requested wedge-shaped modules that enable a huge variety of creative and complicated corvette builds.
Quality of Life
In addition to the bundle of fixes, improvements, and new features in today’s update, the No Man’s Sky team have been hard at work on improving Voyagers since its launch in August. Notably, snapping is greatly improved, collision is more robust, and the Corvette Workshop now offers the option to apply a colour palette to an entire corvette. There has never been a better time to build a corvette!

Community Spotlight
We are genuinely blown away by the imagination of the corvette engineers we’ve seen in the community, utilising a mix of the new corvette modules and pre-existing base parts in ways we hadn’t anticipated, assembling gorgeous original designs or recreations of famous ships! It’s impossible to choose favourites, but we wanted to showcase just a few of the outstanding builds we’ve seen.
Development Update
It has been a crazy year for the No Man’s Sky team, with barely a breath taken between Worlds Part II, Relics, Beacon and Voyagers. We’re so proud and pleased to be able to continue working on this game we all love so much nine years after launch. Seeing so many folks enjoying Voyagers has really inspired us, and we can’t wait for you to see what we have in store in future.
Our journey continues.
