Controversial game 'No Man's Sky' just got its first major update - here's what's new
Despite being the pet project of a dozen or so game developers working out of Guildford, England, "No Man's Sky" was pitched to millions of people as a major, blockbuster game.
Explore the vast reaches of space! Discover unexplored planets and meet aliens! Mine resources! Build stuff!
But some folks who bought the game when it launched in August felt jilted by what they saw as a difference between what the game was supposed to be and what it turned out to be.
They accused Hello Games, the small British studio behind the game, of false advertising; they lambasted it in user reviews, and someone even hacked the studio's creative director.

It was, in short, a mess.
As a result, Hello Games went radio silent. No tweets, no blog posts, etc. That is, until last week, when the studio announced its first major update to "No Man's Sky." The update, called the "Foundation Update," adds a ton of new content to the game while also improving much of its already-existing systems. And it's out now!
