'No Man's Sky' News: 'Exciting' New Exploration Game Demoed at E3 2015
"No Man's Sky" was first revealed a year ago, at the E3 2014. Sean Murray, founder of Hello Games, the developer behind the new open-world space adventure game, has had the concept of the game in his mind since he was a child because he dreamed of being an astronaut. Thus, when he founded Hello Games, it has always been a pet project of sorts.
At the recently concluded E3 2015, Murray revealed that they were closer to finishing this "dream" project. Although they have yet to give a definite release date, the game will be coming to the PlayStation 4 and the PC soon.
"No Man's Sky" boasts of a whole lot of universes and planets to explore. According to a report in Tech Times, Murray says that there will be as many as 18 quintillion planets that can be possibly explored in the upcoming adventure game.

The new game is a space adventure and exploration game, with procedurally generated universes that open up all types of possibilities for adventure and exploration. Players get to ride starships or spacecrafts in order to go off to different planets. They may choose to colonize a certain planet or planets, after they interact with its flora and fauna. They will also be engaging in battles against hostile forces. Players may also boost their spacecraft by collecting, trading and selling resources that they find in their explorations.
The end-goal of the game, according to the report, is to reach the center of the universe. In order for players to do this, they may need to work with other players, sharing information and resources. According to the report, the game has mechanisms that will push players to eventually reach this end-goal.
Because of its 18 quintillion planets, the report calls the game "the world's biggest sandbox." Players will encounter different types of people, "hospitable and inhospitable planets," and "hostile and neutral fauna."
