Since the launch of Starfield, there hasn’t been much commentary from the developers about the game. Bethesda has primarily been concentrating on the Fallout series, especially with the success of the TV show. However, there seems to be a shift in focus towards Starfield, as Bethesda has recently revealed that the game will be receiving a new story expansion DLC. Named “Shattered Space”, the DLC is set to arrive this fall and promises a plethora of content. But that’s not all; they’ve also teased an upcoming update that will enhance spaceship construction mechanics.
During an interview with Kinda Funny Games , Starfield director Todd Howard shared insights into the upcoming DLC’s launch window while discussing new features coming to the game. Howard also elaborated:
“Shattered Space is in the fall, but we have a big update that’s coming really soon for Starfield….There’s a lot of stuff… we redid the map stuff, so we have some city map stuff.”
In December, Bethesda unveiled the story expansion for the first time, stating, “First major expansion arriving next year.” The inclusion of this DLC in the premium game bundle upon purchase hinted at its impending release. The announcement also detailed that the Shattered Space DLC expansion would encompass “new story content, new locations, new gear, and much more”.
Starfield Receives Additional Free DLC Update
While the Story expansion is set to arrive this fall, Bethesda has pledged a new free DLC announcement, possibly as early as this week. Howard disclosed that this upcoming free update will cater to players who enjoy shipbuilding. He also hinted at “some great stuff” on the horizon in that aspect.
In a 40-minute interview with Greg Miller, Howard also discussed Starfield’s modding scene. He revealed that the Starfield Creation Kit is already accessible to numerous creators. When pressed about a potential release date, Howard responded, “I don’t have a date to announce for its full release”. Nonetheless, he emphasized the significance of modders and highlighted the new Creators Program as one of the game’s noteworthy features.
