The space adventure/survival RPG No Man’s Sky was a massive success following launch. However, it also disappointed as it failed to live up to the hype it had created before. Since then, devs have been fairly regular in adding new content to the game. This year alone, the devs at Hello Games added more worlds to explore, along with many more additions and changes. And now, NMS has even more good news for Xbox players.

Not only will Xbox players get the latest DLC as a free upgrade, but they will also be able to unlock the game’s full potential, thanks to the powerful hardware of the Series X and Series S consoles. “We are delighted to be able to announce today that No Man’s Sky: Next Generation for Xbox Series X|S will be launching with the hardware in just a few weeks as a free update for existing owners. The power of new hardware takes the brakes off No Man’s Sky and the procedural generation technology that underpins it in several really profound ways.” UNLOCK THE FULL POTENTIAL OF NO MAN’S SKY ON THE POWERFUL HARDWARE OF THE XBOX SERIES X/S CONSOLES Murphy further said that the powerful hardware of the upcoming Xbox consoles will allow players to experience the world of NMS in high-resolutions. “More powerful hardware allows No Man’s Sky’s procedural generation to create lusher, richer, and more densely populated universes than ever before.” Enjoy the worlds of NMS in 4K at 60fps. Furthermore, the Series X/S version of the game will, for the first time, accommodate up to 32 players in multiplayer. Hello Games has created a vast and detailed world in No Man’s Sky. To play it on the next-gen consoles is sure to bring out the best in the gameplay. Xbox Series X and Series S hit the stores on the 10th of November.

Xbox Series S is the next-gen console by Microsoft that is a scaled-down version of the Xbox Series X. It is Xbox's smallest console yet and is almost 60% smaller than the Series X.

So far, only a white version of the console is shown but it has all the next-gen capabilities. The console may not be as powerful as the Series X but can run all the next-gen games seamlessly.

While the Series S is comparable in basic hardware to Series X, it lacks the Ultra HD Blu-ray optical drive, the raw processing power, and some specs of the high-end variant. The other difference between both of Microsoft’s next-gen consoles is the price point.

<h2>Xbox Series X Expandable Storage</h2>
The Series X console is compatible with a standard standalone hard drive, and it supports products with the Designed for Xbox badge. It will allow players to have had additional storage options apart from the custom NVM Express SSD.

A 2 TB version for Seagate Storage Expansion Card is planned later. Series X is also built with support for USB 3.1 external HDD. Both the options for expandable storage will be sold separately. These standalone products are not included in the console bundle.
<h2>Xbox Series X Accessories</h2>
