Although most are in agreement that Hello Games' galaxy exploration title No Man's Sky has become a very popular game in recent years, there's no denying that it had a fairly abysmal launch when it was released back in 2016. The issue was that No Man's Sky was overhyped, with fans ultimately let down by the lack of content, as well as the broken promises. However, the studio has been working tirelessly ever since to make it the product that many thoroughly enjoy these days. And now it seems the game will be getting into the Halloween mood as well.

They sound similar to the sandworms which were introduced to No Man's Sky last year, in which huge worm-like beasts can be seen emerging from the very ground, and arcing over the landscape. The teaser for the Emergence update even shows a player running away from one of the new Titan Worms as it bursts through the terrain, its mouth agape. There's even footage of one of them flying through the air, screeching at the sky. The overall video has a bit of a creepy, almost horror vibe, in which the screen glitches throughout and the player is seen running rampant across a desolate planet. The trailer doesn't specify when the update will be rolled out, but it will almost certainly be in time for Halloween.

The game is constantly being updated, with the Frontiers patch being the last major one for the space exploration game. This update brought with it the ability for players to become overseers of the planets they settle on, naming towns, arranging festivals etc. Players are also tasked with protecting settlements. Frontiers also looked to improve base-building as well.

With Emergence due out soon, no doubt it will also bring with it some general tweaks and bug fixes to keep the game tip-top. It may have had a rough start, but now is as good a time as any to jump into No Man's Sky. This latest spooky update will provide even more content for players to get stuck into, especially as October 31 fast approaches.

No Man's Sky is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Android devices.
