Hello Games’ next big update for No Man’s Sky – coming August 14th – introduces virtual reality support and a new multiplayer social space called The Nexus, where players can convene with fellow space-farers to show off their gear and feasibly do other fun space-related activities. Finally, you will have a built-in audience for all that pent-up space-comedy material you’ve been saving (“What’s the deal with space monoliths?” you will crack with Seinfeld-like emphasis to your audience of 14 year olds from Bournemouth) and a means for trading tips on how best to get that space-dinosaur fart smell out of your exosuit.
But the latest launch trailer for Beyond shows off something in passing that I’m frankly a lot more excited by: Rideable space crabs and space pigs. Video after the jump.
