No Man’s Sky: Fractal update was massive and brought plenty of new and exciting changes, including the VR overhaul and improved motion controls. With so many changes, bugs were bound to slip through the cracks. Fortunately, folks at Hello Games are always ready to resolve any issues that may arise, which is why they launched Update 4.13.
This patch resolved a ton of issues on all platforms. For instance, there was a bug that caused a number of options to appear in non-relevant configurations. Obviously, these settings have no functional effect, hence, rectified in Update 4.13.
Problems that occurred when using VR were also addressed. For example, the minor hiccup when using the Analysis Visor in VR got fixed.
