No Man’s Sky: How to change galaxy

All players in No Man’s Sky start in Euclid Galaxy, which is one of the 256 galaxies present in the game. No Man’s Sky has a primary storyline that concludes when the Artemis Path is finished. After that, the gameplay offers endless exploration, where players can take on new missions, and embark on limited-time expeditions.

Players can leave the Euclid Galaxy by using their Starship or Freighter to warp and reach the Galactic Core, which exists in the center of the galaxy. A Freighter will be the smart option since they have a higher hyperjump range than starships. You do have to upgrade your Freighter to increase its jump range, which requires Salvaged Frigate Modules in order to upgrade your Freighter.

Important tips before leaving your current galaxy

Before making this jump, you should keep in mind that moving to a new galaxy will damage the technology in your Exosuit, the technology in the starship/freighter being used to make the jump, and also the tech in your multi-tool.

So, do uninstall and store tech from your Exosuit as an inventory to reduce the repair grind after reaching the new galaxy. Also, do not use your main starship to make the final jump. Instead, use a starship that has lesser technology installed, or one that you can simply use as collateral and then salvage it at a Space Station. The same goes for your multi-tool, so use a spare multi-tool instead.

How to travel to a new galaxy

1. Head to the Freighter Control Room and interact with the Freigher Warp Terminal.
2. This will open up the Galaxy Map. Change your path to “Galactic Core”, and this will show you a series of lines, highlighting the path to the center.
3. Choose the star system at the end of the line and warp.
4. Repeat this process until you reach the Galactic Core.
5. Once you reach the Galactic Core, you will see a bright celestial core. To make the jump towards it you will require your freighter to have to have full fuel. You can save up using your Freighter Fuel by making this final jump by a starship instead.
6. To begin moving to a new galaxy, fully charge your secondary ship’s hyperdrive.
7. Open the Galaxy Map, select the Galactic Core, and choose the Warp option.

Easy method to reach Galactic Core in No Man’s Sky

There are trillions of planets in each galaxy, including the Euclid Galaxy. You can also check from the top-left section of the Galaxy Map, how far away you are from the Galactic Core, giving you an idea of how many jumps you will require. So, if you are hundreds of thousands of light years away, even a Freighter with a jump range of 2,000 to 7,000 light years, would require hundreds of jumps to actually reach the center. This also means that you will need to craft a lot of fuel for the Freighter to make these jumps.

If you wish to skip that grind, No Man’s Sky offers players a different route. Players can travel to any planet within the current galaxy, as long as they have the planet’s glyph code. This glyph code is entered into a portal that takes you to the desired planet, and here’s how you can find a portal in No Man’s Sky.

This can be a useful way to make it to a planet near the Galactic Core, and then make the jump to the Galactic Core using your starship. Check out the glyph codes (via Reddit) which will take you near the center of the galaxy you are currently in. These codes can help you move from Euclid to Hilbert, and eventually to the Eissentam galaxy in No Man’s Sky.
