One of the inclusions in Sony's press conference at the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2015 early this week was the demo presentation of the eye-catching open-universe game "No Man's Sky" played by game director Sean Murray. The five-minute demo showed the space combat that players can opt to play, as well as the huge scale of space in the game's massive universe. 

Murray also explored the game's environment and showed the audience a glimpse of the universe. He pointed out to the center of the galaxy, which he described as the place where all players of the game should try to get to. The game director also randomly chose a system to visit, and the chosen planet is called the Sugas-Uomi. It showed a red icon which Murray called a beacon, or a place where the players can upload their discoveries. 

Murray also explained that each planet in all the solar systems present in the "No Man's Sky" universe is fully destructible. He demonstrated that the planets can be easily destroyed just by shooting it with a laser gun. However, the robots called the Sentinels are present in the game to protect the planets from being attacked by explorers. 

Unfortunately, the game director did not mention the exact release schedule of "No Man's Sky," saying, "We'll announce a release date soon, I promise."  

"No Man's Sky" is being developed and published by Guildford, England-based Hello Games studio. The game's concept came from Murray's childhood fascination with outer space and his dreams of becoming an astronaut.

The title was first introduced during the E3 2014 media event by Sony, saying that it will have a timed exclusive release on PlayStation 4. However, the British game studio recently revealed that "No Man's Sky" will now come out for the PlayStation 4 and PC on the same date.
