Summary
Bethesda has teased some of the features and improvements coming in future updates toStarfield.Starfieldwas met with critical acclaim when it released earlier this year, but it seems some fans have started to sour on the open world sci-fi RPG. They have been calling forStarfieldto get more substantial updates, expressing their disappointment when the latest update for the game didn’t do all that much in the grand scheme of things.
In the comment, Bethesda stated that it reads all the feedback fans leave on the officialStarfieldReddit. It teased an update coming early next year that will fix buggedStarfieldquests, and that there are also updates in the works that will add fan-requested features like city maps, mod support, and “new ways of traveling.” Bethesda said it expects to drop a newStarfieldupdate “roughly every six weeks” with smaller hotfixes between the more notable patches.
Fans have been complaining aboutStarfield’s maps since launch, so many will now doubt be happy to learn that proper city maps are in the works for the game. OfficialStarfieldmod support will also be greatly appreciated, though the success of that feature will largely depend on if modders want to create content for the game. After all, theStarfieldmultiplayer mod has already been abandoned, so it remains to be seen if mods will give the game the same staying power as something likeSkyrim.
Perhaps the most intriguing tease in Bethesda’s post is thatStarfieldwill be adding “new ways of traveling.” Many fans have complained about thelack of land vehicles inStarfield, so it’s entirely possible that Bethesda is hinting that such vehicles could be added as part of the game’s 2024 updates.
2024 will also likely see the release ofStarfield’s first major DLC expansion,Shattered Space, which could go a long way in bringing lapsed players back to the game. Bethesda is clearly dedicated to improving theStarfieldexperience based on fan feedback, and that support should do a lot for the game’s longevity.
