What is Light No Fire?

Light No Fire is a game about adventure, building, survival and exploration together, set on a fantasy planet the size of Earth. It brings the depth of a role playing game to the freedom of a survival sandbox.

Earth-Sized World

A procedural fantasy planet at 1:1 Earth scale with no boundaries — every mountain climbable and every ocean real.

Fly Dragons

The signature fantasy of Light No Fire: fly dragons, ride wild beasts and cross real oceans with crews.

Persistent Settlements

Construct lasting buildings and communities that remain part of the shared world for other players.

Play Together

A multiplayer Earth designed to be played together — build, explore and survive with friends across the globe.

Developed by Hello Games, creators of No Man's Sky, Light No Fire presents a shared, procedurally generated world where every mountain can be climbed and vast oceans must be crossed with large boats and crews. Fly dragons, ride wild beasts, build persistent settlements and uncover an ancient earth thick with lore and mystery.

Frequently Asked Questions

When does Light No Fire release?+

Hello Games has not announced a date. Light No Fire was revealed at The Game Awards in December 2023, and the official site and Steam page both say 'to be announced.' Community estimates point to late 2026 or later, but that is speculation. Wishlist the game on Steam to receive the official release notification automatically.

Which platforms will Light No Fire be on?+

Windows via Steam is the only confirmed platform, with a live store page for wishlisting. No console versions have been announced. Given No Man's Sky's history, community members expect console ports eventually, but that is unconfirmed. PC players can prepare now; console players should follow official channels for news.

Are the rabbit people playable in Light No Fire?+

Not confirmed. The rabbit people appear prominently in the reveal trailer and became the game's mascot, but Hello Games has not said whether they are playable, NPCs or world lore. The community debates their role, with theories ranging from playable race to native species. Treat them as confirmed in the world and unknown in gameplay.

Can you really fly dragons in Light No Fire?+

Yes, at the core level. The reveal trailer shows a player riding a flying dragon, and the official site confirms you can 'fly dragons, ride wild beasts.' What is unknown is the system around it — taming, saddles, stamina and whether dragons can be bred. Dragon flight is confirmed; the mechanics are yet to be shown.

Is Light No Fire multiplayer?+

Yes. The official framing calls it a 'multiplayer Earth' where you play together with friends and build a life with players across the globe. Structures and discoveries persist for others to encounter. The technical model — player counts, instancing and servers — is unconfirmed, but the social vision is a core part of the design.

Do buildings persist in Light No Fire?+

The official site confirms 'persistent settlements,' meaning structures remain part of the shared world. That makes building a permanent contribution rather than a temporary shelter. Edit permissions, griefing protection and what happens to abandoned bases are unconfirmed, but the persistence design principle is official.

How big is the Light No Fire map?+

The world is a procedurally generated fantasy planet at one-to-one Earth scale — the official 'unexplored Earth' framing. There is no artificial boundary, and the design goal includes places no player has ever seen. Practical travel times and whether the whole planet is reachable are unknown, but the premise is explicitly an Earth-sized shared world.

Is Light No Fire connected to No Man's Sky?+

They share a studio and technology, but are separate games. Hello Games has said No Man's Sky updates share technology being built for Light No Fire, which is why the community watches NMS releases for hints. There is no confirmed narrative crossover; Light No Fire is a fantasy survival game, No Man's Sky is sci-fi space exploration.

How much will Light No Fire cost?+

No price has been announced. The Steam page is a wishlist placeholder with no purchase options, and Hello Games has not published any pricing information. The community expects a standard premium-game price based on the studio's past titles, but that is speculation. The safe move is to wishlist now and ignore any pricing rumors until launch.

Will Light No Fire have early access or a beta?+

Nothing has been announced. There is no beta sign-up or playtest program open, and Hello Games has not confirmed whether early access will be used. Community speculation exists because many survival games launch in early access, but the studio has stayed quiet. Follow official channels for any announcement; a wishlist on Steam is the best guarantee you will hear about it first.
