IGN has made available a behind the scenes of No Man's Sky as part of their IGN First Coverage, where the members of Hello Games talk about their experience with the development of the geniously inspired randomly generated sci-fi adventure.

IGN has recently released a video featuring 18 minutes of gameplay of No Man's Sky as Hello Games founder Sean Murray gives a guided tour of one planet in No Man's Sky's universe as part of IGN First coverage.

No Man's Sky is a science fiction game set in an infinite procedurally generated universe

No Man’s Sky is a game about exploration and survival in an infinite procedurally generated galaxy. Whether a distant mountain or a planet hanging low on the horizon, you can go there. You can fly seamlessly from the surface of a planet to another, and every star in the sky is a sun that you can visit. Where you’ll go and how fast you’ll make your way through this universe is up to you. It’s yours for the taking.

Hello Games state:

No Man's Sky has been in our heads for a very long time. In fact, it has its roots in Sean Murray's experiences growing up on a ranch in the Australian outback. It was the true middle of nowhere, where if something went wrong you were told to just stay where you were and light a fire at an exact time every day, and hope that someone would find you. The night sky was filled with more stars than you’ve ever seen, and we've all thought that this is exactly where videogames would go, videogames that contained the whole universe, and you’d be able to visit it all. No Man's Sky takes that jump - it's the game we've always wanted to make.

Features

No Man's Sky will release simultaneously on the PlayStation 4 and PC on a yet unannounced date. The game's creator and Hello Games founder, Sean Murray promises that a release date will be announced soon. We will bring you more information as soon as it becomes available.
