No Man's Sky (NMS) Expedition 14 - Liquidators Explained

Nowadays almost every major publisher would love to have a big live service game. To do that, however, is not only necessary to have a big playerbase, but also a consistent stream of interesting updates for people to buy and enjoy. This is exactly what No Man’s Sky does, yet with the caveat that it’s not a Game as a Service (GaaS), and all the new updates are free for current owners of the title. The recent update, 5.0 “Worlds part I” introduces many amazing changes to this production. It also gives us a glimpse of a new Expedition 14, called Liquidators, about which you can learn more here.

Liquidators in NMS explained

Developers from Hello Games continue to dish out amazing, fresh content for their already 8 years old production, while also working on a new one entitled Light No Fire. NMS just got Worlds part I update, while Liquidators Expedition, 14th one, is already upon us. What is known so far about it?

From the official patch notes we can see that:

1. It will last for about 6 weeks.
2. The expansion will be themed with disinfestation on a cosmic level, where you will join Liquidator Vanguard squad who is task with dealing with universe’s “biological horrors”.
3. As fans will make efforts to clean the universe from cosmic bugs, they will be able to gather pieces of the Liquidator Heavy Exomech Hybrid, which is a set of heavy-duty armour for the Minotaur.
4. With the community’s progression, the Liquidator Mech will become accessible at the Quicksilver Synthesis Companion for players who weren’t able to participate in this expansion.
5. The robot itself can be fitted with a flamethrower, which wreaks havoc at close range.
6. If you are interested in the rewards that this expansion will bring, among others you will be able to get custom bug-hunting trophies, arthropod-themed jetpack and a full set of matching armour.

It is important to note that at the time of writing this text, it is yet unknown when Expansion 14 will become available. The creators did not give other information than “shortly”. We can only arm ourselves with patience and look forward to this amazing, new adventure. It is also worth noting that the previous one, Adrift, started 2 days after the update.
