No Man’s Sky’s Remnant Update Is Here, and We’re Finally Getting a Gravity Gun

No Man’s Sky‘s next big update, Remnant, is here, introducing something developer Hello Games has “been wanting to give players since the very beginning”: a gravity gun.

Called the Gravitino Coil, the powerful anti-gravity module for your multi-tool will turn the sci-fi game into “a physics playground,” allowing you to “grab large objects and fling, toss, or carefully carry them around the world.” It can also be used as a ballistic weapon, allowing you to grab sentinels or heavy objects, turning them into projectiles.

We’ll now also be able to collect and recycle the salvage and debris found on planets, turning them into “highly prized” resources, and construct new trucks, tipping flatbeds, and haulers to transport resources back. By carefully sorting and depositing the materials you find — being careful not to accidentally blow yourself up with the “highly volatile” stuff, of course — you’ll reap “great rewards.”

“You can work alone or join a salvage crew with friends,” Hello Games explained. “It creates this really fun and tactile new loop of searching for wrecks, loading trucks full of cargo and hauling across the alien landscape to industrial yards to gain new loot and rewards.”

There’s also other rewards up for grabs, as well as vehicle parts, a steampunk armor set, and vehicle customization to “create bespoke tracks and haulers for your needs.”

Last but not least, there’s a new limited-time community expedition on the way, where players can band together to clean up and salvage materials like a space-age trash collection crew.
