No Man’s Sky is scheduled to release on PlayStation 4 and PC on August 9th, 2016. This new trailer is the second in a four-part series showing off different facets of the game, with this one focusing on combat.
It starts in space, where battles look as most space battles do. At the risk of alerting nearby space cops, of course, though also possibly space pirates, who might come swinging for your own precious cargo.
On a planet, players are equipped with a multi-tool to defend against deadly predator creatures and mine resources.
The Sentinels in particular (an omnipresent force of robots that seek to maintain the natural order of the universe) will only behave aggressively towards the player if they get overzealous with taking a planet’s resources or killing its wildlife. “From the surface to the stars”, the video says about where you can partake in fights.
What the video doesn’t show is how any of this relates to why you’d want to keep doing it for dozens or hundreds of hours on end.

Hello Games invited us to explore No Man’s Sky expansive galaxy last week in its first Guides to the Galaxy series. There’s simply no back-of-the-envelope way to sufficiently describe them.
