Well, Sean and Hello Games have done it again – they’ve delivered an outstanding mega-update that brings substantial changes to the game! In the latest update, Worlds Part II, they’ve introduced a number of new gameplay elements that required some updates to The Portal Repository.
One of the most significant changes is the introduction of entirely new stellar class systems, called Purple stars. In these systems players can now find some major new types of planets, including gas giants, giant versions of the other existing biomes (ex. Glacial Giant) and aquatic planets where there is no dry land and where the oceans are over 1000u deep! In order to gain access to these new purple star systems you have to complete the Stellar Multitudes mission. Upon completion of this mission you’ll have the necessary technology to reach purple star systems and to view them on the galaxy map. Xaine provides an excellent walk-thru of the quest if you’re interested or if you get stuck:
On The Portal Repository I’ve introduced the following changes in order to account for the new content in the game:
– Added “Gas Giant” biome
– Added “Aquatic” biome (only applies to purple-system planets that are entirely covered in water)
– Added the “Giant Planet” option to select under “Planet Characteristics”
– Added the “Purple Star System” option to select under “System Name”
If there’s any other new content you think should be taggable here on The Portal Repository please leave a comment below. Happy exploring Travellers!
Update #1: Also added “Jungles” as a new planet characteristic. It’s unclear to me if any biome can contain jungles, or if jungles are a new biome in their own right. For now I’m assuming they can be found in multiple biomes, so it’s a characteristic, not a biome on the submission form. If anyone has more insight into how jungles work in the update please leave a comment below.
Update #2: Added “Relic World” as a new planet characteristic as well. From the release note screenshots I see that relic worlds can be found on multiple biomes.
The latest update for No Man’s Sky dropped today and it is called “Outlaws”. Version 3.85 is the 140th official update from Hello Games and the 10th update within the “Origins” iteration (Version 3.x).
“Outlaws” introduces a variety of miscellaneous patches, a new starship type equipped with solar sails, outlaw systems with rebel space stations, wingman starship recruitment and much more. They even added some minor, but fun content, like hoods & capes with realistically-simulated cloth physics.
On the Portal Repository I’ve updated the version tagging for newly-submitted portal addresses for version 3.85, as well as adding two new tags: 1) Outlaw System 2) Solar Ship. When submitting a new portal address these new tags are available to select under the “System Name” field and in the “Ships, Multitools & Others” section, respectively.
The latest No Man’s Sky update has been released and it is titled: Sentinel. This update focuses heavily on combat mechanics related to the sentinels and introduces a number of new features and improvements to the Exomech. You can read the full patch notes here.
Also, don’t forget that The Portal Repository already has a “Sand Worm” tag that you can use to search for portal addresses with sandworms: https://portalrepository.com/tag/sand-worms/
I got two bases my main one is on a island and called Mariposa. It has a big building made out of wood (not the metal one!!) you can chill in.
I love rain that's why this planet is PERFECT for me. It always has a calm rain but there are often some storms that destroy your ears.

Notes
Portal, Bases and trading outpost are pretty close together, shouldn't be more than 1000u, not sure tho
Galactic trade station base (+5, -130) to show how buildings can be placed on the landing pads. Portal located (-18, +102) seven hours away with drop pod in between (-0, -142). No sentinels, no bad weather, no hostile animals. Earth like world with the sound of wind, blue waters, several varieties of green leaf trees with occasional purple tree. The occasional conical shaped hill. Small predator animals hunt the big animals, but none of them seem to chase you when you shoot. Gravitino balls and curious deposits which are often rare elements.
Notes
Winslet 20639 star system is in the 20th galaxy about 639 thousand light years from galactic center.
Following hot on the heels of the Halloween update, Hello Games have announced another update called Next Generation! This update is scheduled to be released on November 10th to correspond with the launch of the next-gen Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
Next Generation brings compatibility for new console players on the next generation of PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. Additionally, PC players with “Ultra” settings will also benefit from the improved visuals and graphical enhancements.
