Light No Fire Is a Planet-Sized Fantasy Online Multiplayer Sandbox RPG from No Man’s Sky Developer Hello Games
No Man's Sky developer Hello Games announced its next big project, Light No Fire, at The Game Awards 2023. While the independent Guildford-based studio stretched its legs with the cute little puzzle game The Last Campfire, this new game is perhaps even more ambitious than No Man's Sky in some respects.

On the TGA 2023 stage, Murray called the game (which has been in development for five years at this point) the first real open world without boundaries.
It's something bigger than Earth. Something with real mountains, not video game mountains, but mountains that are miles high, taller than Everest. When you climb to the top of them and look out, you can see rivers and canyons and continents. You can see oceans. And we're going to let everyone play in it together. It's a place where people are going to live out their adventures together.
According to Hello Games, Light No Fire is set in a fantasy world that combines the depth of roleplaying games with the freedom of survival sandbox games. Here's the feature set shared by the studio:

A Procedural Earth
A truly open world with no boundaries at a scale never attempted before. A massively varied and dense planet filled with immersive biomes, unique enemies, and valuable resources to discover.
A Fantasy Earth
