Released yesterday by Hello Games, No Man’s Sky update 1.09 on PlayStation 4 is a 733MB download, according to reports. The PS4’s Update History just says 1.09 includes “more bug fixes” – and the official site hasn’t updated to reveal what’s in 1.09, or even the previous 1.08 – so official details are lacking, but users on Reddit compiled a list of possible patch notes, which can view placed below:
- Stacking exploit removed. You can keep using any existing stacks you have however.
- Some reports of slightly improved graphics and sounds.
- Reported that saves are quicker.
- A report of finding the last missing fauna discovery quickly.
- It seems to make it easier to 100% planets, and also seems to have increased the density of fauna.
- Can no longer hold down square while uploading multiple discoveries, nor triangle when moving multiple pieces of inventory.
- Larger creatures seem more common.
- I’m finding “herds” of animals on a regular basis.
- A report of being able to flee a battle with pirates.
- Reloading a save is faster.
- Many reporting the game just “looks different.”
It remains to be seen when we’ll get more official news about No Man’s Sky, as the Twitter account hasn’t written anything since late August.
On August 18th Sean Murray said, “We’re totally focused on customer support right now. Then we’ll move onto improving and adding features to the game.”
Hello Games’ latest tweet happened on August 27 and talked about patches, while the latest news post on No-Mans-Sky.com happened on September 2.
