Helldivers 2 in No Man's Sky
OkaNitsuki used the photo mode and in-game footage in No Man's Sky to compile shorts resembling the Helldivers 2 trailer cinematics. With excellent editing, voice acting, and music, they succeeded in recreating the hype that the original Helldivers 2 cinematics evoked. They released the video with the title ‘No Man's Divers’.
OkaNitsuki confirmed that they didn’t use 3D software, such as Blender, to recreate any assets from Helldivers 2. Everything used was a creative rendition and arrangement of original No Man’s Sky assets, making it all the more impressive.
Apart from the recreation of the intro cinematics of Helldivers 2 in No Man's Sky, OkaNitsuki’s recreation offers two levels from Helldivers 2 playable and explorable by any player who chooses to visit the galaxy. Let's look at how the missions work and where to find them in No Man’s Sky.

Helldivers 2 Terminid Extermination
The first mission is named Helldivers 2 Terminid Extermination. It takes place in Euclid Galaxy. OkaNitsuki used biological horrors in No Man’s Sky to recreate the terminids from Helldivers 2. The objective is to dive and kill all terminids and terminid eggs.
However, if you save the game after killing them, the eggs do not respawn for two days. Here is the glyph address to visit the system where you can play this level.
Helldivers 2 Automaton Extermination
Taking place in Eissentam Galaxy, the second mission is named Helldivers 2 Automaton Extermination. OkaNitsuki used sentinels in No Man’s Sky to recreate the automatons from Helldivers 2.
This mission has two bases, where machines are spilling oil, and a super destroyer where you can land. Its interior is recreated using No Man's Sky assets, with a close resemblance to Helldivers 2 interiors.
Here is the glyph address to visit the system where you can play this level.
