The creator of the recent No Man's Sky artwork that's been shown lately mentions that it's the box art.

So basically, it should be this (excuse the bad Photoshop job) (also, not my image)

Neuromancer · Jun 28, 2015

It's box art but it may not be final.

Steverulez · Jun 28, 2015

Looks nice

JigglesBunny · Jun 28, 2015

Wait, No Man's Sky is getting a physical/retail release?

Was this common knowledge?

Not sure if it has ever been outright confirmed, but Sean wanted it to have a physical release, and there have been other things pointing towards it happening.

IvanJ · Jun 28, 2015

I put this image as my phone wallpaper yesterday. Looks very cool, I have very high hopes for this game.

valkillmore · Jun 28, 2015

Man I am too excited for this fucking game. And if that's the actual box art I may buy physical for this game.

Jo Shishido's Cheeks · Jun 28, 2015

Well that image makes me feel like exploring so job well done.

i didn't know, but that's awesome news. will definitely pick up when I get a PS4

Sushigod7 · Jun 28, 2015

I really like the color palette in the game looks different from most space/sci-fi games. Hope it comes out this year but not holding my breath.

Do you have a high res version lying around?

E_Darkness · Jun 28, 2015

The art makes me think of those old sci-fi book covers.

Reset · Jun 28, 2015

It looks good.

Certinty · Jun 28, 2015

So this is a full priced retail game?

TheXbox · Jun 28, 2015

Wicked artwork. Maybe a little unintentionally (?) evocative of multiplayer with all the ships in the background, but still awesome.

Omnistalgic · Jun 28, 2015

That's pretty nice....

SwordStruck · Jun 28, 2015

Wow, didn't expect this to get a physical release. The art is super nice also.

Jigorath · Jun 28, 2015

That A in the middle almost looks like a W.

Certinty said:

Could be but I'm guessing $39.99 at most.

Eggbok · Jun 28, 2015

Would buy!

Arion · Jun 28, 2015

I thought this was digital only.

Grisby · Jun 28, 2015

That's pretty hot. One of the best I've seen so far this year.

Certinty said:

If any game appears to be deserving of a 'full-price,' it should be this.

thiscoldblack · Jun 28, 2015

Looks really nice.

Kiriku · Jun 28, 2015

They got Simon Stålenhag? That's awesome.

Same guy who made these, for example: http://www.theverge.com/2013/8/27/4664842/sweden-reimagined-what-if-sci-fi-tech-were-real

Nah man, it's more like NO MNN'S SKY

Draft · Jun 28, 2015

If true great cover.

RiverBed · Jun 28, 2015

Looks nice.
By the way, what is that flying alien triangle black ship?

Vyrance · Jun 28, 2015

That is a great looking cover

Dlink16 · Jun 28, 2015

Cannot wait for this!

ZeroGravity · Jun 28, 2015

Now that's a fucking box art.

Trust me. I'm a PhD · Jun 28, 2015

Hope that's it. I really like it, but since I am Digital only it most likely won't be that cool...

thedan001 · Jun 28, 2015

Day 1 purchase, especially if Morpheus VR

valkillmore · Jun 28, 2015

Damn the thirst for this game is too real.

shinobi602 · Jun 28, 2015

I'm actually surprised people are surprised at a retail release...didn't Sony say they're putting their full weight behind it and treating it like a first party release?

Calvero · Jun 28, 2015

that looks beautiful

They certainly did. Makes perfect sense.

Zia · Jun 28, 2015

Beautiful. Hope the Steam grid art looks that nice.

greatgeek · Jun 28, 2015

Beautiful.

Yep, Sean Murray has said that the look of the game was inspired by those covers.

sn00zer · Jun 28, 2015

That would be literally one of the best cover arts ever

JayWood2010 · Jun 28, 2015

I would just like to know the release date. Getting this on PC, so dont care too much about the boxart, though it does look nice

enigmatic_alex44 · Jun 28, 2015

That covers is gorgeous, but I've never heard of this game until this thread.

So..... I looked @ some videos on Youtube and... what is this exactly? Exploration game? You can travel to different planets? First person view with a gun when you step out of your ship? Is there a story?

It gave me indie vibes, similar to something like Journey. Since smaller games are usually digital and I only buy physical/retail, my interest is definitely piqued...

Indeed^^ Reminds me so much of C. S. Lewis' Out of the Silent Planet books^^

I wasn't aware, isn't this an online only game? The physical disc will be worthless in the future once the servers are down.

I was definitely thought it was just going to be a digital title.

Xaero Gravity · Jun 28, 2015

I had no idea a retail release was even happening.

Yabberwocky · Jun 28, 2015

Damn, please be the box art, that's incredible.

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
