No Man’s Sky Patch 5.58: Hello Games Rolls Out Major Bug Fixes for 'Worlds Part II' Update on Nintendo Switch and Beyond No Man’s Sky, the acclaimed space exploration adventure by Hello Games, has continued its tradition of robust post-launch support with the recent release of Patch 5.58.

This latest update arrives on the heels of the major 'Worlds Part II' content expansion, which hit platforms including Nintendo Switch and Steam in January 2025.

With a steadfast commitment to quality, Hello Games has once again responded to player feedback with a comprehensive set of bug fixes and optimizations designed to improve the intergalactic experience across all available platforms. The 'Worlds Part II' update brought a wealth of content to No Man’s Sky, introducing new solar systems, biomes, and terrain variations.

However, as with any large update, unforeseen issues surfaced.

In response, Hello Games acted quickly, gathering community-reported bugs and delivering solutions in Patch 5.58, which was officially released on March 4, 2025.

While players on Steam have already received the patch, Hello Games assures that deployment to other platforms, including Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Mac, will follow promptly.

In a statement, Hello Games reiterated their commitment to multi-platform parity and ongoing support, emphasizing that the update will reach "all platforms as soon as possible." Patch 5.58 delivers a sweeping range of improvements.

Notably, it addresses a series of mission blockers in various expeditions, resolves issues related to the Chronicle and Titan Expeditions, and fixes rare bugs affecting settlement switching and crafting recipe assignments.

Players will also find targeted corrections to text, UI, and audio issues, along with crucial fixes for platform-specific glitches, such as memory optimizations on PlayStation 4 and visual problems on Mac. Additionally, key updates include allowing players to archive their current starship or Multi-Tool (with safety measures to prevent accidental deletion of the only starship or Multi-Tool), improvements to Exocraft controls and functionality, and enhanced analysis visor features like local weather anomaly tracking.

Performance and visual fidelity have also seen refinement, with enhancements to VR rendering, water effects, and planet atmosphere visuals.

Accessibility for mod authors is being expanded through improved data indexing and clearer metadata outputs. One charming addition is the newfound ability to adopt crabs as companions, further expanding the gameplay’s procedural possibilities.

Overall, the patch underlines Hello Games' responsiveness to the No Man's Sky playerbase and continues the trend of delivering highly-requested quality-of-life improvements on Nintendo Switch, Steam, and all supported hardware. No Man’s Sky’s journey from its 2016 launch to now has been marked by a series of ambitious updates and community-driven developments, earning its place among the most continuously-evolving titles in the Nintendo eShop and across digital storefronts worldwide.

The latest patch provides yet another reason for both long-time explorers and newcomers on Nintendo Switch and other platforms to revisit the ever-expanding universe that Hello Games has so meticulously crafted.
