Hello Games has announced that No Man's Sky will get to keep its name after settling some "secret stupid legal nonsense." Studio boss Sean Murray announced the settlement deal with British broadcasting company BSkyB across a series of tweets recently.
He said the legal battle had been going on for three years. Sky was also the company that, in January 2014, emerged victorious against Microsoft over "Skydrive." This name was changed to "Onedrive" as a result of the legal action. As Murray says, "This is the same folks who made Microsoft change Skydrive to Onedrive... so it was pretty serious."
No Man's Sky is now scheduled to arrive on August 9 in North America, followed by August 10 in Europe, and August 12 in the UK.
