No Man’s Sky Heads to iOS on October 28

Hello Games has announced an October 28, 2026 iOS launch for No Man’s Sky, taking its space-exploration adventure to another platform. This is a mobile release announcement, not a new PC edition or a hands-on assessment of its performance.

Try the Opening Before Buying

The accompanying App Store description says players can try the beginning for free. A one-time purchase then unlocks the full game, including ten years of updates. The announcement does not establish a purchase price, so there is no confirmed price to compare with the existing PC and console versions here.

The mobile edition’s listed content includes the major updates released since launch, from Foundation and NEXT through Worlds Part I, Worlds Part II and Voyagers. The report’s update list extends to COSMOS (7.0), positioning this as a version of the long-running game rather than a separate, stripped-down spin-off.

The Same Exploration-Focused Premise

The described experience retains procedurally generated planets, spaceflight, trading, combat and survival. Moving between space and planetary surfaces is central to the game’s appeal, while ship and equipment upgrades shape how players explore and cope with hostile environments.

An iOS Deep Dive trailer accompanies the announcement. For readers who already follow the game on PC, the news is about its expanding reach; device compatibility, controls and real-world mobile performance should be checked separately before buying. The October 28 date is an announced launch target, not a claim that the mobile version is already available.
