Learn where to find and how to install all Exocraft blueprint upgrades in No Man's Sky. Discover upgrades for Nautilon, Minotaur, Roamer, and more on the Space Anomaly.

You can find blueprints for all Exocraft upgrades on the Space Anomaly from the NPC Iteration: Perses. Blueprints are organized by Exocraft type: Nautilon on the left, Minotaur on the right, and Roamer, Nomad, Pilgrim, and Colossus in the center. Hazard protection units for extreme environments are also on the left.

Upgrade modules can be purchased with Nanites from technology merchants on space stations. Most upgrades are for the Roamer, Nomad, Pilgrim, and Colossus, with some specific ones for the Minotaur and Nautilon. Upgrades range from C to S tier, and you can install up to three modules of the same type for additional stat boosts.
