No Man's Sky's 'Breach' Update Launches With Space Wreck Salvaging and Ship-Building Expansion

The release builds on August’s space-walking overhaul to turn derelict wrecks into a new path for progression.

Overview

  • Players can locate and salvage massive space wrecks to unlock a large set of new ship components, including vertical and structural pieces and rare Atlas-themed parts.
  • Ship construction gains improved and expanded options that build on the recent redesign introduced with Voyagers.
  • A limited-time Breach Expedition drops players into an abandoned universe centered on rare purple-star systems, with gas giants, ocean planets, and new cosmetic rewards.
  • Hello Games published full Breach patch notes on its website and released a trailer on YouTube.
  • The update continues a busy 2025 that added purple-star systems, palaeontology, Switch 2 support, and customizable Corvettes, helping drive the game’s highest Steam player counts since launch.
