A fight on a planet at night in No Man Sky (NMS).

The Planets have a day/night cycle in No Man's Sky.

Day will change to night and night will change to day as the planet rotates around the star of its solar system.

Strategy Guide/Tips[edit]

  • It is safer to explore a planet during the day.
  • The length of the day and night cycles will depend on various factors including the position and rotation of the planet in relative to any suns in the system.
