Bethesda's Starfield, a space-themed role-playing game, has achieved record-breaking success with 13 million players since its September launch, making it the most significant debut in Bethesda's history. In a recent blog post, the developer announced a commitment to regular updates every six weeks, encompassing a range of enhancements from quality-of-life improvements to substantial content and feature updates. Anticipated additions include novel travel methods, city maps facilitating navigation in expansive locales like New Atlantis or Akila City, expanded ship customization options, new difficulty settings, survival mechanics, and adjustable sliders affecting carry capacity and vendor credits.
Notably, Bethesda plans to introduce official mod support, named Creations, in early 2024, complete with a Creation Kit and exporter. The inclusion of mods, a hallmark of Bethesda games, has historically contributed to both substantial game-altering changes and whimsical additions such as unique hairstyles or summoning countless cabbages. Additionally, a major expansion titled "Shattered Space" is under development, scheduled for release next year, promising fresh story content, locations, and gear. While details about Shattered Space remain sparse, players eagerly await its unveiling to discover whether it will reveal new insights into the mysterious Starborn.
