*No Man’s Sky* offers a fantastic solo experience, but playing with friends can take it to the next level. If you're encountering the Version Mismatch error in *No Man’s Sky*, here’s how you can resolve it.
The Version Mismatch error in *No Man’s Sky* occurs when you attempt to start a multiplayer session with a friend on a different platform, and one of you hasn’t updated the game. For example, if you’re on Steam with the latest version and your friend on a PS5 hasn’t updated, you'll encounter this error. It can also happen within the same platform if updates are not synchronized.
Resolving the Version Mismatch error is straightforward. Ensure that all players update their game to the most recent version available. Once everyone is on the same update, you should be able to start a cross-play multiplayer session without any issues.
However, sometimes this can be challenging, as updates may roll out at different times across platforms. If you're on the latest update for your platform but your friend has already received a newer update, you’ll still get the Version Mismatch error. In such cases, you’ll need to wait for the update to reach your platform, update the game, and then try again.
That's how you can fix the Version Mismatch error in *No Man’s Sky*. For more tips and information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
