If you ever thought the likes of Pokemon Stadium needed more guns, then I have to say that's oddly specific, but the hit survival game Palword is serving up what you're looking for.

Hello Games boss Sean Murray is teasing another No Man's Sky update with cryptic emojis. In two separate tweets now, Murray has shared a series of star emojis, or more specifically, the star emoji used to represent dizziness. It's not clear what that's meant to signify, but that hasn't stopped fans from guessing.
This comes shortly after last month's Omega update, which of course, was also teased with a string of emojis over on Murray's social media account. In that instance, the emoji he used revealed the name, as he tweeted the omega symbol. It might be the same this time around, likely meaning that the update will incorporate the word Star in its title, somehow.
Naturally, fans are already hard at work in the replies, trying to decipher what on earth Murray is communicating to us here. The only thing we can assume with any confidence is that a new update is on the way since we're all well aware of how Murray teases new patches at this point.
So, what is going to be in the next update? A couple of my No Man's Sky-playing colleagues (thank you Sam and David) suggested that the star emojis could be referring to starships. This could mean that the next update will finally add the ability to customise player ships, something fans have been waiting on for a while.
The last update, Omega, went live on February 14. It overhauled Expeditions, the limited-time events introduced in 2021, by improving the gear and ships that players start out with. The update made other changes outside of this mode too, like being able to steal from any pirate freighters you defeat by boarding them instead.
It's hard to tell when the next No Man's Sky update will be with us, but there was only a wait of a few days between Murray's last emoji tease and the Omega patch going live, so it could be released very soon. That's far from confirmed though, especially since it's only been a few weeks since Omega dropped, so take that with a pinch of salt. In the meantime, we'll have to see if Murray feels like dropping any more hints as to what the update will actually do. Admittedly, these teases are likely to take the form of more star emoji spamming, but I'm sure that won't stop fans from trying to figure it all out. They're used to all of this by now.

The 10.2.7 PTR may be close as the Battle.net launcher has been updated with 10.2.7. Formerly listed as the 10.2.5 PTR, this has now been updated to 10.2.7! The servers have not been updated yet, but we're one step closer to Patch 10.2.7.
Physics-based roguelite Noita has received a second Epilogue update that adds a whole host of new features, tweaks, and modding capabilities.
No Man's Sky has become synonymous with ambitious developer overreach, a cautionary tale of what can happen when publishers do nothing to reign in out-of-control hype. When the game was released in 2016 and failed to meet sky-high expectations set in no small part by Hello Games director Sean Murray himself, fan backlash was the stuff of legends. But ever since, the developer has set about making amends.
The patch notes for the latest Palworld update include a detail that might just be more exciting than any of the new content or improvements: the promise of a big ol' "content-packed update" landing this summer.
No Man's Sky remains one of the greatest comeback stories in the industry, a shaky launch entirely reversed by nearly a decade of meaningful and entirely free support. More than a dozen expansions later, however, and despite a new game on the way, game director Sean Murray is still yearning to improve the game's reputation.
Rockstar has announced plans to add Bully and LA Noire to GTA+ later in 2024.
RTGI, not to be confused with NVIDIA's RTXGI SDK which was recently updated to version 2.0, is Pascal Gilcher's famous ReShade screen space ray tracing shader. The German graphics modder and former NVIDIA employee rose to fame when he released it in May 2019, providing PC gamers with an easy way to improve the lighting of older games at an acceptable performance cost.
No Man's Sky is barely recognizable from the game that launched all the way back in 2016. That's down to the passionate developers at Hello Games consistently updating the title with new features, quality of life improvements, and massive free expansions, turning one of the worst games of 2016 into arguably the greatest redemption story the games industry has ever seen, outside of maybe Cyberpunk 2077.
For the next free update in the ever-expanding No Man’s Sky, industrious developer Hello Games has completely rebuilt space stations. As it notes in a press release, previously these were one aspect of the game which weren’t procedurally generated, but when the update launches later today (27th March), that will all change.
Xbox released another major update for members of the Xbox Insiders program, with a number of fixes for Game Clubs, the Home screen, and more features. The new update comes just one day removed from the March 28 Xbox Insiders update, which fixed a bug involving dynamic backgrounds on Xbox.
is the latest effort from developer Kuro Games (). It's an action RPG gacha title set to release for iOS, Android, PC, and PlayStation, and borrows heavily from already popular titles within the same space — most obviously, which it will inevitably draw numerous comparisons to. That's certainly not a bad place to start, however, and what innovates is more than enough to separate it as a game worth watching as it moves closer to a global release following another round of closed beta tests.
