Hello Games has announced that its open universe space exploration game No Man's Sky will be available for Xbox One this summer.

Previously only available for PS4 and PC, No Man's Sky will come this summer to Xbox One with Xbox One X HDR and 4K enhancements. 505 Games will be publishing a physical version of the game worldwide, and the Xbox One version will come with all previous major updates to the game — Foundation, Pathfinder, Atlas Rises — on day one.

Additionally this summer, Hello Games will release No Man's Sky NEXT, the next major free update to the game. (NEXT will also be available on day one for the Xbox One edition). The update is free for all existing players and is, according to Hello Games, the game's biggest update so far.

Little is known about what NEXT will include, but the logo for the update, viewed above, includes the logo for the mysterious WARE platform,

As fans of No Man's Sky's ARG may know, Ware-tech.cloud is seemingly connected to the game's ARG, as the website has been connected to the ARG's Waking Titan Phase 4.

Hello Games delivered one of No Man's Sky biggest updates came last year with Update 1.34 Atlas Rises, which added new story content, the Joint Exploration online co-op mode, and much more.

At the time, IGN took a look at whether the Atlas Rises update was worth returning to No Man's Sky for those players who may have lapsed, as IGN's initial No Man's Sky review said it "reaches for the stars but falls short by light years. It's amazingly big, but too often poorly designed."
