Light No Fire is an upcoming open-world, adventure massively multiplayer online video game developed by Hello Games. Announced at The Game Awards 2023 by founder Sean Murray, Light No Fire is set on a fictional world similar to Earth, where players survive in a procedural landscape. The game is expected to be released after 2026, and has been confirmed for Steam. Murray has given infrequent updates on the game's official website and through X.
Light No Fire was announced at The Game Awards 2023 by developer Hello Games. Managing director Sean Murray said that the game had already been in development since 2018.[2] Murray confirmed that the development team for Light No Fire is small.[3]
The game was described as being "an ambitious open world the size of planet Earth".[4] A trailer was released in a August 2025 No Man's Sky "Voyagers" update post from Hello Games, describing the planet as "shared, with real oceans to traverse, needing large boats and crews".[5] The game itself is set on a multiplayer, procedurally generated planet, with a fantasy theme. Weapons and magic are a primary aspect of the title, with stone age cabins observed as player abodes. The official website said "Light No Fire presents you with an ancient earth to uncover".[3] David W. Duffy of TheGamer described No Man's Sky's "Worlds Part 1" update as a "proof of concept" for the "fantasy-themed Super-Earth" of Light No Fire, citing the storms and realistic water effects visible in the trailer.[6] Screenshots featuring dragons and rabbits were published to 4Gamer in December 2023.[7]
