When starting the game no mans sky the following message appears. The Vulkan driverr for 'AMD Radeon R9 200 Series' reports that it is version 1.5.0. This seems to be an old driver. We recommed updating to te latest version available at www. amd.com. According to the message, I updated the driver on my video card AMD Radeon R9 270x to the latest available version. And not any changes all the same message appears

Upgrade your NMS version (v2.06c), the R9 200 series is compatible with Vulkan.

Hello

1. AMD no longer supports Windows 8.1
2. You will need to upgrade to Windows 10 to continue using updated drivers for your GPU.
3. Your installed driver is probably the last one to launch AMD for W8.1 (17.7.1) AMD Radeon™ R7 360 Drivers & Support | AMD 
4. Information for NMS update: Beyond Patch 2.06c - No Man's Sky 
5. Right click on the game in Steam's library, go to Properties, in the updates tab select "keep this game updated".
6. If point 5 does not work, on the Local Files tab, select check the integrity of the files, and restart Steam.

The latest AMD driver software is from 2017. AMD has abandonned Windows 8/8.1 two years ago.
The issue here is the OS, not the GPU. My friend has this exact same issue.
