Another update for No Man's Sky has landed, and this one definitely has some (much-needed, in our opinion) horror vibes to it. Dubbed the Desolation Update, this new patch brings No Man's Sky to version 2.6 and adds new derelict freighters to encounter and explore. As you might expect, those abandoned freighters can hold rewards for those brave enough to face the dangers of exploring them.

With the end of the current console generation fast approaching, there are plenty of people wondering how publishers and developers will handle cross-generation games. On Xbox Series X, we'll see Smart Delivery, a feature that lets customers buy a game on either Xbox One or Xbox Series X and own it on the other platform, but Microsoft isn't forcing publishers to participate in that program.
