No Man’s Sky Release Date: 10 Things to Know

No Man's Sky Versions

There are two No Man's Sky versions that allow you access to the full game. The standard version of No Man's Sky is $59.99 and there are some pre-order bonuses including;

-- Early access to Rezosu Z65 - a multitool that allows you to mine resources and stay safe.

-- 10,000 point boost to start the game. Buy faster ships, better weapons or more resources.

-- Alpha Vector Ship - start with a better ship that comes with lasers and a hyperdrive.

You also get these bonuses with the No Man's Sky special edition, but the $20 upgrade also gets you a number of extras. It's hard to find this in stock, and its not clear it it will come back in stock any more with the delay. 

Inside the No Man's Sky Limited Edition you will find a Steelbook case, a 48 page art book, an exclusive No Man's Sky comic and a PS4 theme. The limited edition also includes three in-game bonuses including;

-- Photonix Core Ship Boost

-- Trader Charisma Bonus Resources

-- Boltcaster SM Weapon Blueprint

These will stack on the pre-order bonus and allow you to get a boost when you start out. The No Man's Sky Limited Edition is selling out at many retailers. If you are interested you can sign up to get alerts when the No Man's Sky Limited Edition is in stock at any store. We've seen it go in and out of stock quickly at many retailers. The special edition is going to $100 to $140 on eBay already. 

The last time it was in stock was on June 29th for a short period on Newegg. It appears to go back in stock every few days for a short time. If you see it in stock and want it, don't hesitate.
