No Man’s Sky update 1.13 adds larger space battles

No Man’s Sky is undoubtedly a contender for biggest disappointment of the year, but Hello Games has been hard at work supporting the title after launch. Now, the 1.13 update has been released, introducing bigger space battles.

“Space battles will now vary in size more and players should see bigger battles,” Hello Games wrote on the title’s website.

Otherwise, this seems to be more of a bug-fixing update, judging by the release notes, seen below.

• Fixed a bug that would make the player character small.
• Space battles will now vary in size more and players should see bigger battles.
