Bits & Bobs gives you bite sized updates from across the web that don't warrant their own full-sized story.

No Man's Sky Launches Voyager's Update, Adds Multiplayer Starships

One could be forgiven for thinking that No Man's Sky was finished after its initial, overpromise and underdeliver launch. But Sean Murray and his team promised to continue working on the title, and they have.

The latest major update, Voyager, adds larger personal ships. As opposed to the single seater ships players have been zipping around in since launch and the large freighters, corvettes cut the difference between the two. They can be taken down to a planet's surface, but are also large enough for players to get up and walk around. They can even welcome their friends in too!

Playstation 6 Portable Alleged in the Works

If serial leaker Moore's Law is Dead is to be believed, Sony is looking to re-enter the portable space, six years after the discontinuation of the Playstation Vita.

According to the leak, the Playstation 6 will come in three main SKUs. The interesting part of this is the two lower power versions, a dockable handheld and "S" version featuring a six core AMD APU in an interesting hybrid configuration where two low power Zen 6 cores will run the system's OS, and four "high density" Zen 6c cores will run games.

The full power version of the system is set to feature eight Zen 6 (or better) cores.
