No Man's Sky: 10 Core Gameplay Features You Need To Know About

8. The Rule Of Three - Weapon, Suit, Ship

Soon to form the basis of how we'll play Mass Effect Andromeda, No Man's Sky's approach to upgrading your character is funnelled down three respective paths; your weapon, your suit and your ship.

For example, you can choose to spec your weapon more towards uncovering specific elements and make it a mining tool instead of a firearm, or perhaps the total opposite if you fancy being more of a blaster-happy, Han Solo-type.

Your suit will need to be outfitted with specific upgrades to survive harsher conditions and more hazardous planets, just the same as your ship will require a planet-hopping warp drive installed if you want to get to the next big point of interest.
