No Man's Sky: RELICS adds paleontology in today's update, allowing players to dig up the skeletal remains of alien creatures.
The update introduces new creatures, dangerous areas guarded by creatures such as Stone Ghosts and Stone Golems, and a new community expedition for rare finds.
Travellers can piece together discovered bones, create their own museums, and share collections with other players.
No Man's Sky: RELICS is now available on SteamVR, PlayStation VR2, and flatscreen platforms.
