What Is the Version Mismatch Error in No Man’s Sky?
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 to the latest version. For example, if you're on Steam with the latest update and your friend is on a PS5 without the update, you'll encounter this error. It can also happen even if you're on the same platform but have different game versions.
How to Fix Version Mismatch
Fixing the Version Mismatch error is straightforward: ensure all players are running the latest available version of the game. Once everyone is updated, you should be able to start a cross-play multiplayer session without issues.
However, implementing this fix might not always be immediate. New updates for *No Man’s Sky* can roll out at different times across platforms. If you've updated to the latest version on your platform but a newer update has just been released elsewhere, you may still face the Version Mismatch error when playing with someone who has the new update. In such cases, you'll need to wait for the update to become available on your platform, update your game, and then try again.
That's how you can resolve the Version Mismatch error in *No Man’s Sky*. For more tips and information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
