The No Man’s Sky ‘Voyagers’ Update (6.0) has introduced the highly anticipated Corvette-Class Starship, a massive, fully bespoke ship designed for multi-crew gameplay. This new ship class finally delivers on the dream of building and crewing a custom, nomadic base that travels with you across the galaxy, fundamentally changing the multiplayer experience and providing a mobile hub for cooperative missions.

Key Features of the Corvette Starship

The Corvette ships are significantly larger than traditional starships, featuring extensive customization options and completely traversable interiors.

• Full Customization: Players can assemble their Corvettes piece by piece using a large catalogue of snappable modular parts. This includes the hull, wings, engines, accessways, and an extensive array of structural and decorative peripherals. This is a massive leap from the previous customization limits, allowing for personal, unique designs reminiscent of iconic sci-fi ships.
• Multi-Crew & Habitable Interiors: Corvettes are designed to accommodate multiple players, who can walk around the interior as the ship travels. The interiors can be fully furnished with various functional modules:
  • Habitation Modules (“Habs”): Available in distinct styles (Titan, Thunderbird, Ambassador) to form the main living areas.
  • Functional Units: Includes the Nutrition Unit for cooking, the Refiner Unit for complex, three-input recipes, and the Mission Radar for coordinating multi-crew adventures.
  • Multi-Storey: Internal stairways allow for the assembly of multi-level ships.
• Spacewalking and Skydiving: The update adds new physics and mechanics, including the ability to step directly into deep space from the Corvette’s airlock to float weightlessly or jump ship-to-ship. Furthermore, players can now skydive from their Corvettes down to a planetary surface, adding a thrilling new dimension to planetary exploration.
• Advanced Piloting: The Corvette benefits from an especially powerful Pulse Drive for faster warping. It also features an Autopilot system that registers destinations and allows the pilot to vacate the seat and attend to matters within the ship while it travels.

Impact on Gameplay and Exploration

The introduction of the Corvette shifts the dynamic of space travel and teamwork in No Man’s Sky. No longer is the Freighter the only mobile base; the Corvette serves as a much more personal and actively-flown home for a small crew. Players can now use their massive, custom ship as a central, mobile hub—a shelter from the elements and a place to regroup and strategize before flying down to a planet together to complete missions, harvest resources, or uncover rare treasures.

The new technology required to allow multiple players to travel stably within a custom, fast-moving ship that is simultaneously generating a planet as it approaches represents a significant technical challenge overcome by Hello Games, and the community’s reaction has been overwhelmingly positive, celebrating the feeling of building a truly shared and custom home in the cosmos.
