Hello!
As part of our season of 2024 Expedition Reduxes, the Aquarius Expedition goes live today. It will run for two weeks until 22nd January.
Back in September 2024, we launched the Aquarius update, and with it introduced fishing to No Man's Sky, partly because it's just a fun thing to do alone or with friends, but mostly to show off the new water effects which the Worlds Part I update had ushered in a few months before!
It's fair to say that introducing something as seemingly incongruous as fishing into a sci-fi world has been met with almost universal joy from the community. Clearly there was a pent-up need to pause the exploration, base-building, or adventuring for a while, find a suitable waterside spot, and sit and relax while waiting to see what the catch of the day would be!
The Aquarius Update also introduced a new waterborne platform, the ExoSkiff which enables you to venture further from the shoreline and fish for bigger catches in deeper waters.
The Aquarius Expedition which accompanied the update encouraged Travellers to explore the vast array of water expanses the universe had to offer and hone their angling skills in the pursuit of the limited time rewards, not least the Deep Sea diving suit and Aquarius Flight Pack.
These rewards and many more are once again available to claim from today for those who embark on the Aquarius Expedition Redux which runs from the 8th to the 22nd January.
The final Redux of the 2024 Expeditions, The Cursed, which includes the vaunted UFO-style Boundary Herald Starship will follow on 22nd January.
The small No Man's Sky team are working very hard on some really exciting things for 2025 and we can't wait to share them with you very soon.
Our journey continues.
