No Man’s Sky Space Courier Missions are new delivery jobs introduced with the Forsaken 7.10 update on 28 October 2026. To take a courier contract, you need a corvette and a Gravitino Coil, then visit a deep-space outpost. You’ll be paid to transport packages safely between planets.
These are paid delivery contracts, not the salvage jobs that send you picking through hulks and asteroid belts. The equipment requirement is what trips people up, so check your corvette and Coil before looking for work. Here’s where the missions appear and how to get started.
How to start No Man’s Sky Space Courier Missions
| Requirement | Confirmed detail |
|---|---|
| Update | Forsaken 7.10 or newer |
| Ship | Corvette |
| Equipment | Gravitino Coil |
| Where to start | Deep-space outpost |
| Contract type | Delivery of clients’ packages |
Install Forsaken update 7.10 and make sure you have access to a corvette fitted with a Gravitino Coil. Hello Games explicitly lists a corvette and Coil as the conditions for courier work. A regular starship on its own isn’t enough.
Next, fly to a deep-space outpost and check the salvage and delivery contracts terminal. Look for a courier or delivery job rather than a salvage contract. Hello Games confirms these missions are available from outposts, but doesn’t publish a fixed mission name or package route that every player will see.
Do No Man’s Sky Space Courier Missions require a Gravitino Coil?
Yes. The developer says Travellers need both a corvette and a Gravitino Coil for the new package jobs. The Coil is also used for collecting physical salvage, but courier contracts use the same equipment for transporting clients’ packages.
If your corvette doesn’t have the Coil, deal with that first. You won’t solve the missing requirement by switching to a normal ship or by visiting more outposts. Hello Games hasn’t announced an alternative way to take these jobs without the equipment.
Where to find No Man’s Sky Space Courier Missions in Forsaken 7.10
Find the new work at deep-space outposts, not the usual planetary trading posts. The contracts terminal handles both salvage and delivery jobs. Read the contract description and pick a package delivery if you want to try the new courier activity.
Once you’ve accepted a courier contract, follow its destination and transport the client’s package to the requested planet. Hello Games describes the work as interplanetary delivery for generous payment, but doesn’t give one universal route or a fixed reward shared by every job.
What can you earn from No Man’s Sky Space Courier Missions?
Completing a delivery earns payment for safely carrying the package to its destination. The No Man’s Sky Space Courier Missions aren’t the same as Forsaken memento trading: they don’t award the new cockpits or Larva Cannon as a confirmed mission reward.
The official notes don’t give a fixed payout per parcel, a standard time limit or a guaranteed number of deliveries at each outpost. Read the individual mission details before accepting, especially if you’re choosing between delivery and salvage work.
Why aren’t No Man’s Sky Space Courier Missions appearing?
Check these three things in order: Forsaken 7.10 is installed, you’re looking at the contracts terminal in a deep-space outpost, and your corvette has a Gravitino Coil. Those are the confirmed starting conditions for No Man’s Sky Space Courier Missions.
If you’ve met all three requirements, read the current job listings carefully. Hello Games hasn’t published a guaranteed board-refresh schedule or a restart trick that forces a courier mission to appear. An absent listing on one visit doesn’t prove your game is broken.
Other Forsaken changes that help space couriers
The update improves guidance for recovering material from asteroid belts and deep-space hulks with the Gravitino Coil. You can pin deep-space materials in the Catalogue to help find them, and the contracts terminal now has more varied job names. Fixes also address corvette modules failing to snap after loading and cargo issues at the Space Anomaly in multiplayer.
