Hello Games co-founder Sean Murray announced the update, called No Man's Sky Next, on Thursday's episode of Inside Xbox. Murray further clarified in a Friday blog post that multiplayer will come for free to the PlayStation 4 and PC versions of the game on the same day.

"We've been playtesting multiplayer for the last six months, and the game has evolved into a very new experience that we think the community will enjoy," Murray said in the post.
