An absolutely amazing game has been teased for Apple’s platforms.
The founder of Hello Games, the makers of popular action-adventure survival game “No Man’s Sky,” yesterday tweeted two apple emojis, sparking speculation that the studio is teasing an announcement for Apple platforms at WWDC.
Hello Games founder Sean Murray, who’s been known to tease upcoming announcements via cryptic emojis, teased that No Man’s Sky would be available for the iPad and Mac would by the end of 2022. Hello Games missed that deadline and the game has yet to release for Apple devices, meaning that the two emoji teasers could indicate that the launch of No Man’s Sky for the iPad and Mac is now imminent.
It’s also rumored that given the widespread energy and hype around Apple’s mixed-reality headset at WWDC in less than a week, No Man’s Sky could be en route for the new device. No Man’s Sky is already available on multiple VR platforms, including on PC and PlayStation VR. When the game was demoed at WWDC last year, it was played on a Mac with the M1 chip. Since Apple’s headset is rumored to feature at least one chip that is based on the M2 chip in addition to a dedicated image signal processor, it should be more than capable of running the game.
Hello Games has also worked with Apple to publish games on Apple Arcade, something which points to a solid connection and/or relationship between the two companies.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
