The speculation around the next No Man’s Sky update has been intense on Reddit, with players eager to share their theories about what’s coming to the game. One recent theory caught attention, suggesting that the pot emoji seen in the game could be a hint at the arrival of rivers. This suggestion stems from the association of the pot emoji with Aquarius, the water-bearer, leading to the question of whether rivers might be introduced. While the idea might seem far-fetched, there is some additional information that supports this theory.
Following the first part of the Worlds update, players have reportedly datamined details about underwater biomes, including mechanics related to deeper oceans. This suggests a strong focus on water elements in the upcoming update, potentially hinting at a significant marine expansion. While the evidence doesn’t directly confirm the arrival of rivers, the community’s support for the theory adds to the anticipation. With No Man’s Sky creator Sean Murray known for tweeting a few days before an update announcement, it’s likely that more details will emerge soon.
Ultimately, the game’s almost boundless universe offers a sandbox experience, driving players to explore, gather resources, upgrade their gear, and survive in a procedurally generated open world.
