All this new content is another step into building out No Man's Sky into one of the best space exploration sims around. While the new update has seemingly launched on both PlayStation and PC, the Xbox update is nowhere to be seen. So, when is it dropping?

No Man's Sky Omega Update: When Does It Release On Xbox?

When we first posted this article, neither Hello Games or No Man's Sky's Sean Murray had announced the release of the Omega update, let alone the Xbox release. However, as of February 15, 2:00pm GMT, the update has been announced. 

Players previously confirmed that they had received the update across both PlayStation and PC, though Xbox players were yet to receive the update. The Omega update is now live across all platforms.

It's not the first time that a No Man's Sky update has released later on Xbox, as one Reddit post highlighted that Microsoft typically roll out their No Man's Sky updates later. 

The confusion emerged mainly because previous updates have been released with a decent level of communication, with announcements posted across social media platforms ahead of, or at, launch.
