No Man’s Sky looks to be quite successful already, and it’s only been available in the US for a day.

Posting on Twitter this morning, Hello Games founder Sean Murray revealed that players have already overtaken humankind when it comes to discovering new species.

“Over night we hit 10 million species discovered in NMS… that’s more than has been discovered on earth.

“WHAT IS GOING ON!!!”

Murray’s Tweet comes as No Man’s Sky launches across Europe, with the US launch having already been taxing the game’s servers.

If you haven’t already seen, two No Man’s Sky players actually found each other yesterday only to find that they couldn’t actually meet in game.
