A social media post by No Man's Sky developer Sean Murray hints at potentially big news coming on June 7. Hello Games, which is known for No Man's Sky, has been working steadily on the game since its 2016 release. Although there has been ongoing support for No Man's Sky, Hello Games released The Last Campfire in 2020 and recently teased information about a big new game that has fans waiting to see what's next.

Despite a troubled launch with missing features and a need for polish, the reputation of No Man's Sky has turned around. Years later, there are many who consider it one of the best games to play right now. This positive reception has players excited about what else Hello Games can create. Although there has been some news over the last year, the studio has remained relatively quiet about upcoming projects.

Hello Games founder Sean Murray made a post on social media that appears to be hinting towards an upcoming announcement. Murray's post is a quote reply to Geoff Keighley, who originally said "I love watching new video game trailers." Murray responded, "just as well." Posts by Murray on the internet tend to be brief, so this was enough to garner plenty of attention from the No Man's Sky fanbase. It seems that Murray has subtly announced that there will be a trailer from No Man's Sky studio Hello Games at the upcoming Summer Game Fest, which begins on June 7, and fans have replied to the post expressing their excitement. Many are guessing that this will be another trailer for Light No Fire, the studio's highly anticipated new game.

Sean Murray Hints at New Game Trailer

However, it is possible that No Man's Sky could be getting a trailer showing off something like a new expansion, as the game is in its best shape yet and still receiving regular updates. Nevertheless, there are some fans who would like to see more revealed for Light No Fire. Hello Games' highly anticipated new game was last seen in an announcement at The Game Awards 2023, where it was made clear that Hello Games intends to produce a game that rivals the scope of No Man's Sky. Light No Fire appears to iterate on the format of its predecessor. The new game will feature multiplayer components and survival elements such as vast new places to explore, combat, and house building.

Based on Hello Games' track record regarding ambition and its output, players are cautiously optimistic. Although the team seems to have more than made up for previous mistakes, fans have emphasized the virtue of patience for Light No Fire. Gamers are hoping that this new release will be feature-complete on launch, but many will expect to see, or possibly even play, parts of the game before getting their hopes too high.
