Grab Your Space Rod and Find the Perfect Fishing Spot in the No Man’s Sky Aquarius Update

Summary

  • The No Man’s Sky Aquarius update is available to download this week, and is free to existing players
  • This latest free update makes full use of the recently upgraded water and introduces fishing as another meaningful activity to aid survival (or relaxation) in the universe
  • A whole host of other water-based activities, challenges and rewards await Xbox, PC and Game Pass players

Wow! What an amazing month we’ve had, welcoming so many more Xbox and Game Pass No Man’s Sky Travellers into our newly-revamped universe, propelling our player numbers to among our highest in five years. 

The Worlds Part I update really struck a chord with the community, who rushed to share amazing screenshots of their vibrant new vistas, especially the seas, oceans, and lakes which now ripple and sparkle with realistic wave formations and foam generation. 

It was only appropriate then that our first expedition in this brave new world should be water-based. 

The Aquarius Update is free to download for existing Xbox players this week and introduces something we have been tempted to add ever since we stood on the shores of No Man’s Sky’s planets and looked out across their watery expanses – fishing!

Those who have explored the depths in their Nautilon submarines will know that the bodies of water in No Man’s Sky are as abundant with creatures as dry land. The thrill of the catch in No Man’s Sky lies in the fact that you never quite know what you’re going to pull up. The variety of aquatic life ranges vastly from common minnow-like fish to huge alien marine mammals.

Fishing in No Man’s Sky is a uniquely relaxing experience, either alone with your thoughts or with the companionship of others. Grab a rod and your friends (optional!) and set out to explore the universe in the hunt for the perfect fishing spot. Cast off from the riverbank, float out further on your deployable Exo-Skiff, or acquire the blueprints to make automatic bait pots and establish a fish farm. Craft bait and unique lures to catch rarer fish – including legendary catches, each accompanied by a snippet of marine lore.

While you’re waiting patiently to catch a bite, why not dredge for hidden messages in bottles from those that have passed this way before? Or, participate in the associated fishing expedition launching alongside Aquarius, which sends players on a quest for the biggest catch of the day!

Of course, with this newfound ability to farm the lakes, seas and oceans, you will want to develop your cooking skills with all-new recipes and ingredient combinations out there to be discovered alongside new marine life.

Fill out your Fishing Records with over 150 unique catches, adorn your base with nautical-themed decorations, and earn a beautifully detailed set of deep-sea customisation parts, including a unique underwater jetpack.

For those who have yet to jump into No Man’s Sky, you have a lot to catch up on. The Omega, Orbital and the dramatic Worlds Part I updates so far this year alone have added so much! If you’ve got a Game Pass subscription, why not take the plunge with Aquarius?

No Man’s Sky is available on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Game Pass.

Fly smoothly from deep space to planetary surfaces, with no loading screens, and no limits. In this infinite procedurally generated universe, you'll discover places and creatures that no other players have seen before – and perhaps never will again. Embark on an epic voyage At the centre of the galaxy lies a irresistible pulse which draws you on a journey towards it to learn the true nature of the cosmos. But, facing hostile creatures and fierce pirates, you'll know that death comes at a cost, and survival will be down to the choices you make over how you upgrade your ship, your weapon and suit. Find your own destiny Your voyage through No Man's Sky is up to you. Will you be a fighter, preying on the weak and taking their riches, or taking out pirates for their bounties?

Invest in more cargo space and you'll reap huge rewards. Or perhaps an explorer? Go beyond the known frontier and discover places and things that no one has ever seen before.

Trade convoys travel between stars, factions vie for territory, pirates hunt the unwary, and the police are ever watching. Every other player lives in the same galaxy, and you can choose to share your discoveries with them on a map that spans known space. Perhaps you will see the results of their actions as well as your own…
