A large update is also coming soon.

Starfield got off to a strong start on Xbox breaking all sorts of records for Bethesda and now the development team is looking ahead to the future with the upcoming Shattered Space Story Expansion.

During an appearance on the Kinda Funny Gamescast, Todd Howard has mentioned how the expansion DLC is expected to launch in Fall 2024. Before this, players can look forward to some big updates coming soon.

      It was well received, decently stable, and fun for what it was. Lots of big name developers can’t manage that these days.

        Perhaps I am completely off base, but I didn’t think it was that well received, at least not for being a bethesda game

          Iirc it still sold really well (especially with preorders) and even I apparently put 20 hours into it, I tried so hard to like it…

            I think it’s just one of those polarizing kind of games. I barely put 5hours into it but I have some friends still playing through the NG+ loop after 100s of hours.

          I feel like it started really strong but as people completed the game a lot of people started saying it was dull.
