No Man's Sky Forsaken 7.11 fixes two crashes just one day after the Halloween update
No Man's Sky has received its first Forsaken hotfix. Released on Steam on October 29, 2026, patch 7.11 resolves two crashes that could interrupt space travel. Hello Games plans to deploy the update on other platforms as soon as possible, without announcing specific dates.

Exploring an enormous universe is considerably less enjoyable when a routine journey ends in a crash.
Hello Games has addressed two such problems in No Man's Sky, just one day after the release of the major Forsaken update.
Patch 7.11 became available on Steam on October 29, 2026. Its official notes identify two fixes: one involving the teleporter aboard the Space Anomaly and another affecting travel between star systems.
The announcement is deliberately brief. This is a stability hotfix rather than another content expansion.
Two crashes involving space travel
The first fix addresses a crash that could occur while using the Space Anomaly's teleporter.
The Anomaly serves as an important location within No Man's Sky, providing access to various activities and services as players explore the galaxy.
A crash during teleportation can interrupt an otherwise routine journey.
The second fix targets a crash that could occur when warping from one star system to another.
Hello Games does not specify the exact conditions that triggered either issue.
The studio also provides no estimate of how frequently players encountered these crashes or which hardware configurations were most affected.
It is therefore important not to interpret the patch as a comprehensive solution to every potential problem involving teleportation or interstellar travel.
Forsaken introduced a new way to travel
The timing is notable. Forsaken 7.10 launched on October 28, only one day before the hotfix.
One of its largest additions is Seamless Warping.
The feature allows players to target certain nearby stars directly from space and travel to their systems without opening the Galaxy Map.
It changes how players navigate between neighboring systems, making interstellar travel feel more continuous.
However, the 7.11 notes do not establish whether the corrected warp crash was directly caused by this new feature.
The proximity of the two updates alone is not enough to demonstrate a specific technical connection.
What Forsaken actually added
While patch 7.11 contains only two documented fixes, the preceding Forsaken update introduced a much wider selection of features.
Players can search abandoned freighters, deep-space wrecks and infested outposts for unusual biological objects.
These discoveries can be exchanged with mysterious new traders for biomechanical corvette modules.
The additional parts enable players to build spacecraft with sinister, organic-looking structures.
Forsaken also adds space courier missions, additional cockpit configurations and new customization options.
A minimal interface mode allows experienced players to reduce on-screen information.
A radial Multi-Tool selector makes switching between weapons and utilities more convenient.
These are features of update 7.10, not new additions in patch 7.11.
Steam first, other platforms later
Hello Games explicitly confirms that patch 7.11 is live on Steam.
The developer says the same corrections will reach other platforms as soon as possible.
That statement does not confirm that PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch or iOS users have already received the update.
No platform-by-platform release schedule has been published.
Players should check their installed version rather than assuming simultaneous availability across every system.
Hello Games continues to encourage bug reports through its support service and console crash-reporting tools.
Continued support after a major release
The hotfix follows Hello Games' established approach to post-update maintenance.
Player reports help the studio identify problems, and corrections are released as they become available.
Its October 29 announcement says further patches will follow when additional issues are found and resolved.
No specific date has been provided for another update.
For Steam players, patch 7.11 is available now. Everyone else will need to check for the corresponding platform release, which Hello Games has announced but not yet dated.
