@Fred - We are awaiting additional stock from PlayStation SA. They had planned units for March and told us to communicate as such but the Final batch for that March allocation has only recently started arriving in SA due to Shipping delays.

We have already started dispatching units and collections from this week as the units arrive and will notify you as your order is processed.

As always, all orders are guaranteed, but to be fair for all PS5 customers, we have to process them i order of received and paid for You should have good news very soon!

Hi there. I ordered a console on the 10th of February and paid for it on the 25th of February. I got a confirmation email from you that you received the payment on the 1st of March, and the email also stated that I will receive one of the March allocation consoles. It's April now and I have not heard anything from you. I am fully aware that you cannot give me a clear indication as to which date I will receive my PS5 due to safety and security reasons. I would like to ask which month can you estimate the arrival of my console? Will it be around this April or May? I will be looking forward to your response.

No Man's Sky's Massive Expeditions Update Adds New Game Mode and Much More

by Sam Aberdeen on 01 April, 2021

    2  

     

No Man's Sky is the gift that keeps on giving, and then some. Hello Games have certainly come a very long way since their divisive 2016 launch, but have gone above and beyond to improve the game while adding significant updates and massive expansions all for free. This latest Expeditions update is no different, as it adds a new game mode to the experience that encourages shared exploration via long journeys across the vast sandbox universe. This seems to be an online-focused update, but it definitely gives you enough reason to jump in with friends.

No Man Sky's Expeditions is a new game mode that unites explorers on a journey from a fixed point in the universe, to which it then branches out on a shared journey. Each milestone reached rewards you with shared goodies as well, incentivizing you to experiment with how you play No Man's Sky. Weekend missions will make a return too - weekly procedurally generated missions with the aim to unite explorers as they tackle a common objective. All of this works together to reward players with various base parts, new customization options, and an exclusive ship design, among many other rewards. The start of the update will mark the first expedition, with Hello Games promising many more to follow.



The Expeditions update also tweaks and improves other gameplay elements, such as adding Target Sweep to the Analysis Visor, which allows you to survey and uncover a lot more while out exploring, including new missions and objectives. The in-game HUD has also been overhauled, presenting a much smoother UI experience. This is not to mention a plethora of fixes to bugs and performance issues. The full list can be found HERE.

No Man's Sky has gone from a rocky launch to one of the best space exploration games on the market, and if you're feeling for a next-gen experience, the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S upgrades really improve your journey, not to mention making the visuals stand out. There's a lot to unpack, so strap in if this is your first time visiting the game.

The Expeditions update is now available on consoles and PC.
