Although we were already burned once, <strong>we can&#8217;t help but feel hyped from this trailer:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No Man&#8217;s Sky Beyond is set to launch on Aug. 14. It will be available for Xbox, PlayStation, PlayStation VR, Steam VR, and PC. <strong>This is the biggest update to No Man&#8217;s Sky since the game&#8217;s initial release.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Back in 2016, gamers everywhere were hyped for No Man&#8217;s Sky. It promised to be one of the biggest open-world games ever created if not THE biggest.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, our tears of joy rapidly turned into tears of sorrow once we actually started playing the game.<\/p>\n<p>No Man&#8217;s Sky was a giant open-world experience, but all of the planets we were able to visit just felt like more and more of the same. Basically, each planet was not entirely unique;<strong> they were basically the same few looped over and over again.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"No Man's Sky\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-logo-l,f_auto,dpr_auto\/p\/837a020c-96d4-11e6-8a9c-00163ed833e7\/1795405019\/no-mans-sky-logo.png\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">No Man's Sky<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/no-mans-sky.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download NOW \u25ba<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--60\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"60\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"6\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\">6<\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/no-mans-sky.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<p>Despite its checkered past, No Man&#8217;s Sky Beyond sold us with just two letters: VR.
