No Man’s Sky 7.02 Is Live on Steam With Corvette Fixes and a PS5 Streaming Crash Fix

No Man’s Sky patch 7.02 is now live on Steam, bringing a wide set of fixes for the Cosmos update. The patch corrects Corvette problems, mission errors, space station hazards, visual issues, performance problems, and four different crash causes. Hello Games said the update will come to other platforms as soon as possible.

The patch follows the broader Cosmos update, which added player-owned stations, space hulks, orbital bases, asteroid belts, and new space activities. Version 7.02 also lets players return to the remains of a completed space hulk, while addressing a PlayStation 5 streaming crash and cloud-rendering problems on AMD GPUs.

Hello Games detailed the full scope in its Cosmos 7.02 patch notes. Players who still run into problems can submit a bug report through the studio’s support system.
