No Man’s Sky’s Voyagers expedition starts today, 1st September, and runs until 27th October, so if you want to get HoverCutie in your collection, you’d better get your space boots on.
Following the release of last week’s splendid Echoes update, No Man’s Sky has now launched its latest limited-time expedition, Voyagers, giving players approximately six weeks to complete its objectives and secure some very nifty rewards – including an adorable HoverDroid companion, looking very much like a flying Roomba with eyes.
Voyagers – which, like all previous expeditions, starts players afresh on a completely new save – begins aboard a freighter in No Man’s Sky’s Oishida system, where Travelers will embark on a journey to complete exploration-focused objectives, discovering new creatures, braving extreme planets, digging up ancient treasures, and more along the way.
And given developer Hello Games’ propensity for teasing the themes of No Man’s Sky’s next big update with its expeditions, I’m already curious about the story implications of its arrival, having fallen down yet another No Man’s Sky lore hole (yes, No Man’s Sky has lore, and, yes, it’s fab if you like a jolly old pile of nihilism, melancholy, and creeping existential horror with your colourful space adventuring) after last week’s Echoes update.
