The developer Hello Games continues to work on new content for No Man’s Sky. With the latest update, players can craft quick motorbikes. This brings planet exploration to a new level.
What is the Pilgrim? The “sturdy and agile” Pilgrim motorbike is the latest toy in patch 1.63.
Players have a wide range of options to customize their exo-vehicle. Ground handling and drifting can be adjusted using multi-level sliders to ensure the driving behavior perfectly matches the player’s preferences.

Why players see the horse in Skyrim while using the motorbike: The horse glitch in Skyrim has earned a legendary reputation in the gaming community. It allowed players to effortlessly scale the steepest mountains and walk on vertical walls with their horses.
Fans on Reddit have noticed a certain similarity between the glitch and the new Pilgrim vehicle.
How much the upgrades boost the new vehicle: Upgrading the new bike is worthwhile. The Pilgrim receives extremely strong boosts on all levels, allowing the bike to easily tear through trees and rocks while driving. It can even drive on very steep surfaces. Almost like the horses in Skyrim, just without the help of a glitch.
In fully upgraded condition, the Pilgrim surpasses the Nomad exo-vehicle in almost every aspect. The only downside is that it cannot drive on water.
You will be able to buy the blueprints for the Pilgrim at the blueprint analyzer. The upgrades for the bike are available from the Exo vehicle technician.
Patch 1.63 brings more color to the game
What’s new? With update 1.63, you can also give your vehicles a personal touch, thanks to the expanded cosmetic options. The new menu includes:
- Color palettes
- Stickers
- Effects for the boost flames

The new cosmetic options, as well as the control options for drifting and ground handling, are also available for all other vehicles starting with patch 1.63. You can find the full patch notes on the official site.
You can see how the Pilgrim looks in action with and without upgrades in this video starting from 8:14 minutes:
