What Causes the No Man's Sky Version Mismatch Error?
The Version Mismatch error in No Man's Sky arises when attempting a multiplayer session with players on different platforms or with differing game versions. For example, if one player's game (e.g., on Steam) is updated, while another player's (e.g., on PS5) is not, this error will occur. This applies even if players are on the same platform but have different versions.
How to Resolve the Version Mismatch Error
The solution is straightforward: ensure all players are running the latest available game version. Once everyone is updated, cross-platform multiplayer should function correctly.
However, update rollout can be inconsistent across platforms. A new update might reach some platforms sooner than others. Even with the latest update for your platform, you might encounter the Version Mismatch error if a newer update has been released but hasn't yet reached your platform. In this scenario, patience is key; wait for the update to deploy to your platform, update your game, and then retry the multiplayer session.
