No Man's Sky: Find Atlas Pass V1, V2 and V3 - how it works
In No Man's Sky you often stand in front of closed doors and containers that can only be opened with an Atlas Pass. We'll show you where to find all of these passports here.
Find Atlas Pass V1 in No Man's Sky
The Atlas Pass V1 is the first access card for special doors and containers in No Man's Sky.
- To receive this pass, you must travel to a third solar system after receiving the hyperdrive. You can choose this as you like.
- Then scan the new system and move to the purple icon that appears after a notification that a monolith has been found.
- Track the signal to the monolith and interact with it. Then trust the promise of the Atlas and you will get a mark on your star map.
- An Atlas interface has been marked with a blue target and the notification "Anomaly discovered" appears.
- We advise you to collect warp cells that the hyperdrive needs before you travel to the new destination, since the path usually turns out to be very long.
- Once you arrive, speak to the giant orb and agree to get closer to the Atlas Pass V1 blueprint.
- Then warp to different galaxies on the bar with the Atlas interface until you encounter an anomaly. Always activate the scanner as soon as you have arrived in a new system.
- Once you find the anomaly, follow the mark and speak to the two aliens on site.
- You will then receive the blueprint for the Atlas Pass V1, which you can then manufacture with 25 irons and 10 Heridium.
- To open all doors and containers, you must now place the Atlas Pass in a slot of your Exo suit inventory.
No Man's Sky: Atlas Pass V2
Doors or freight containers with a higher security level require the Atlas Pass V2.
- To get the Atlas Pass V2, you should go to surgery centers. You can recognize them by the steel doors, which you can destroy with your multi-tool as a blaster.
- As soon as you enter, the alarm is activated. You can deactivate it via a switch and collect the Atlas Pass V2.
- However, please note that instead of the Atlas Pass V2 you can also find components for your ship or the multi-tool. In this case, you will need to go to additional operations centers until you find him.
Atlas Pass V3: Location
The Atlas Pass V3 bypasses the highest security measures in No Man's Sky and can open all locks.
- You can get it at a colonial outpost. To do this, go to a signal scanner and track the signal to one of the items.
- Once you've arrived, look for a console in the center of the facility. If you crack the number puzzle, the Atlas Pass V3 can wave as a reward.
- If you receive other items, simply go to other outposts and repeat the procedure.
