How to get a living ship in No Man's Sky

Check out our guide to the latest Living Ship update for No Man's Sky.

The living ship is a special form of life, thanks to which each individual ship will look different from the rest. And you can get one for yourself so that you can later use it to explore the universe. Then, using alien parts, it will be possible to improve the ship.

First you need to activate the Starbirth quest chain (Birth of stars). Look for her in the space anomaly. Follow the strange melody of the Egg of the Abyss. The space anomaly appears in a random sector after three game warps or 2 hours of play. The Void Egg is in the Space Anomaly Shop. It costs 3200 units of mercury.

Complete daily tasks and use our mercury mining guide to accumulate the required amount. Keep doing this until the Egg Melody quest is unlocked.

During this quest, the eggs will grow, incubate, and hatch. A living ship will appear. There are several dozen variations of the appearance of this ship. You will be able to research new organic technologies to improve the sentient cruiser. Will you be given clues about where to go next??. These will be coordinates or a clear description explaining the location of attractions on different planets. The "Birth of a Star" quest chain consists of several missions, so keep doing them until you get a living ship.
