Summary

No Man’s Sky’sbiggest update of 2024 so far dropped last week, asWorlds Part 1 completely refreshed the universewith all kinds of new tech and features to make the game look even more impressive than it already did. It’s causeda massive surge in playersand once again has people askinghow exactly Hello Games stays in business with all these free updates.

However, on top of bringing new life to the universe that we all love to explore, this new No Man’s Sky update also appears to have brought us yet another clue about the long-rumored PS5 Pro. It’s a bit of an odd place for a PS5 Pro leak to occur, but that’s what seems to have happened after No Man’s Sky dataminer ThatBomberBoi uncovered what is likely the PS5 Pro’s internal codename in the files of the update.

First reported byInsider Gaming(thanksKotaku), two separate images were shared by ThatBomberBoi, displaying the Graphics Preset Options of both the PS5 and another console simply titled Trinity. Those that keep up with PlayStation rumors will know thatit was reported back in 2023 that the internal codename for the PS5 Pro is “Project Trinity,“so this is more than likely a reference to our elusive console.

No Man’s Sky Dataminer Finds A PS5 Pro Leak In Worlds Part 1 Update

If you were hoping that these graphics options might give away how powerful the PS5 Pro might be, you’re going to be disappointed. The only thing we can gather from these images is that the PS5 Pro will be able to increase No Man’s Sky’s dynamic resolution scaling by 0.2 and will bump the game’s graphical detail from high to ultra. We have no idea what the game will look or run like with these settings, so we’re in the dark on that front.

However, this leak does suggest that developers are getting ready for the imminent arrival of the console, which points to a possible release at some point this year. It was recentlysuggested by insider Tom Henderson that the console could slip into 2025, though there are no signs of that happening right now, and this No Man’s Sky leak seems to back up a 2024 release. As for what games will actually run like on the console, we’ll have to wait and see.
