The Steam page describes the Goat Simulator 3 “Baadlands: Furry Road” DLC as follows:

A calamity has unfolded across San Angora, transforming the island into a vast desert. Nobody’s quite sure why, but let’s be honest… it was probably Pilgor’s fault. Again.

Play as Baallistic Pilgor, the antihero and survivor of the apocalypse. Roam around the Baadlands on your motorcycle, butt heads with bizarre rival factions, establish your town and harass its citizens, and try to figure out what’s behind the mysterious vault. All this while covered in sand.

KEY FEATURES:

    • You’re G.O.A.T! (still, always, forever)

    • Sand. So much sand. Enough sand to get everywhere. And I mean everywhere

    • You know the expression ‘when pigs fly’? It’s almost like that, but instead of a pig, it’s a goat. And instead of flying, the goat can ride a motorcycle. A customisable motorcycle. Woah

    • Explore a vast wasteland with familiar pre-apocalypse remnants hidden among the dunes

    • A new currency to acquire for all your apocalyptic needs. Finally, you can be broke in the game, just like in the real world. This simulation is getting too real y’all

    • Paint the town red with destruction or build it up like a productive member of society (but destruction is more fun)

    • New goats, gears, vehicles, achievements, and quests to keep your chaos addiction well-fed

No Man’s Sky ‘Breach’ Update Available Now, Patch Notes Released

No Man's Sky 'Breach' Update Available Now, Patch Notes Released

Hello Games has released the latest update for No Man’s Sky, titled the “Breach” update. The patch notes for the update are also available. 

The latest update for No Man’s Sky is available now on PlayStation 4/5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, and PC. The patch allows players to explore destroyed ships, new corvette modules, and quality-of-life updates. Check out the trailer for the “Breach” update of No Man’s Sky below:

The patch notes are available via the game’s official website, and are as follows:

Breach Expedition

In Breach, players will traverse a desolate and abandoned universe and on their travels encounter the abandoned remains of ill-fated corvette ships, all ripe for scavenging ship modules to add to your corvette-building arsenal.

Excavating these wrecks will yield an array of corvette pieces including rare vertical parts which unlock a whole new range of build configurations for the more creative designers.

Among the exclusive expedition rewards, there is also a set of Atlas-themed modules for those wanting to demonstrate their allegiance to the all-seeing entity.

The jewel in the crown of these wreckages is the Fireship Arcadia, the fate of which you will learn as you venture through Breach. But you will have to face your fears and make a leap of faith into the black as you space-walk through these eerie systems to glean their unique remnants.

The spooky Breach Expedition embraces the darker side of the universe and will also lure the bravest Travellers towards the ominous and exotic purple-star solar systems which players first glimpsed in Worlds Part II back in January. The planets in these systems are particularly foreboding with their deep, abyssal oceans, unearthly entities and the notoriously imposing and volatile gas giants.

The Breach Expedition begins today, and will run for approximately three weeks.

Space Wreckage

In the far reaches of deep space, wrecked corvettes can now be encountered and salvaged. Step out into zero-gravity to explore these hollow hulks, and equip your Multi-Tool laser to dismantle their valuable modules – then repurpose this scrap to build your dream ship at a Corvette Workshop.

New Corvette Modules

A significant number of new corvette modules are now salvageable from deep-space corvette wrecks and planetary scrapheaps. These include new landing gear, shields, weapons, connectors, and a number of highly-requested wedge-shaped modules that enable a huge variety of creative and complicated corvette builds.

Quality of Life

In addition to the bundle of fixes, improvements, and new features in today’s update, the No Man’s Sky team have been hard at work on improving Voyagers since its launch in August. Notably, snapping is greatly improved, collision is more robust, and the Corvette Workshop now offers the option to apply a colour palette to an entire corvette. There has never been a better time to build a corvette!

Breach Expedition Rewards

Event Horizon, Eternal Serpents, and Siren of the Stars Posters

These decorative posters commemorating the Breach expedition depict a deep-space gravitational anomaly, the tileable eternal serpent of time, and a betentacled siren, poised to begin its mucal embrace…

The extruded Aeron Cowling and Aeron Diffuser hull plates add a bold, angular appearance to your corvette’s silhouette.

Wings of Aeron

This Atlas-themed wing module stabilises the corvette during atmospheric flight.

Aeron Powershield

These decorative Atlas-themed modules can be affixed to the corvette exterior, furthering the ship’s devotion to the crimson entity.

Aeron Starship Trail

This engine modification injects the Starship exhaust trail with an arterial streak of crimson.

Aeron Drive and Aeron Blade
