No Man’s Sky Takes Only 6 GB on Disk; Team Already Working on First Update
No Man’s Sky has gone gold, and since the game is now ready to be printed on disk, Creative Director Sean Murray was able to reveal how much of that disk will be occupied by data.
For those asking – size of No Man’s Sky on disc is just 6GB. A lot of that is audio (⌐■_■)

You’re possibly asking yourself how is it possible that a game as big as No Man’s Sky takes so little disk space, and the answer is quite simple: A lot of the content is procedurally generated, and that requires a lot less disk space.
On top of that, we also learn that the game passed certification in Europe, United States and Asia on the first try, while the team is working on the submission for Japan.
RC1 on the disc means Release Candidate 1. We passed cert first time in EU, US and Asia, currently here working on Japanese submission (ᵔᴥᵔ)

Murray then shared that the team is already working on the first update:
Well, waiting for a build to upload really. Actually we’re already busy on Update 1

Just for kicks, we also got a screenshot of the Chinese version of the game.
