No Man’s Sky Patch 3.98 Is Out Now; Adds New Missions, Fixes Visual Issues And More

August 1, 2022 by Jordan Coetsee

No Man’s Sky Patch 3.98 is out now for Xbox, PC and PlayStation consoles. The update fixes a number of bugs and visual issues.

Hello Games has recently update the space exploration title No Man’s Sky. This new update fixes issues that we experienced when the “Endurance” update was dropped on July the 20th. If you guys missed it, the Endurance update essentially overhauls the Freighter building system, allowing players to extend their Freighter with observation decks and catwalks. It’s quite cool because it gives players a wider view of the galaxy surrounding them.

Update 3.98 fixes a couple of visual glitches with freighter parts, and with freighter engines. The Infestation Nexus missions have also been fixed leading players directly to their targeted planets. Leviathan missions have also been fixed, whereby previous missions would persist beyond the end of the expedition.

The update has also added two new additional parts to the freighter: an internal staircase and a set of exterior stairs. Also, if you add a ladder in your freighter a room will automatically be added above it.
