Hello Games will release a physical edition of No Man’s Sky: Beyond for PlayStation 4 on September 10 in North America and September 11 in Europe, the developer announced.

Here is an overview of No Man’s Sky: Beyond and the physical edition, via Hello Games:

Launched last week, Beyond is our largest and in some ways most important update. It massively expands multiplayer and increases the capacity for social interactions in a major way. On top of this the whole game is now playable in fully realised VR.

It also delivers a whole load of new features, large and small, which come together with the two other pillars to form what we call No Man’s Sky version 2.0.

Beyond is our attempt to bring all of the strands of No Man’s Sky into a more cohesive whole and to fill in the detail so that, no matter your play style, no matter whether you’re a newcomer or veteran, it is an instantly accessible world and one that makes sense.

It seems only fitting that we should bundle up all of these three years of updates, re-master the game, and re-issue it on a shiny new disc.

Curious to try no man's sky, but I didn't want to wait long for the beyond update to load.

Makes sense. It's so far removed from the original disk version.

PD should do this with GT Sport. The current physical version is basically just a download launcher. It needs re-releasing with all updates.

I'll buy a physical copy just for collecting and to support the developers. They game me 3 years of fun, countless hours and many meaty expansions without having to pay more than the day one copy.

Day 1.

 

[TLZ]

This is the full, definitive version then. I'll buy.

 

[PlayerReady]

I take it is only for PS4?

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

I own it digitally. I'll rebuy this on disc. I platinum'd the vanilla version and enjoyed the heck out of it. The game is so much more complex and expansive now, so I've been afraid to jump back in.

they can forget about the sticker now!

 

[Griffon]

The current state of Beyond is a buggy mess, September 11 to ship a functioning version of the game sounds about right.

Anyone have any hands-on impressions of this in VR?
