Bethesda Softworks has announced a new release date for Starfield, a massive galaxy-spanning game based on The Elder Scrolls’ gameplay and structure. Starfield was first announced in 2018 and is scheduled to launch on November 11, 2022. Later, that date was pushed back to the first half of 2023. Starfield’s new release date is September 6.
Starfield takes cues from Bethesda’s Elder Scrolls series, including a silent protagonist and first-person conversations.
There are also more than 100 star systems to explore and over 1,000 planets to explore, giving the game a massive scope similar to No Man’s Sky or Elite: Dangerous.
“We have poured ourselves into this game, and even I’m surprised how much we can pour,” says game director Todd Howard in the launch date announcement video. “It is large.”
On June 11, there will be a Starfield Direct showcase revealing more information about the game, where players will be able to learn more about the world, narrative, and characters they will meet on their journey. “There’s so much we still have to show you,” says Howard. “This game has many of the hallmarks that you’d expect from us, but it’s also a very unique experience.”
He adds, “We know you’ve waited a long time to play something new from us. Believe it or not, we’re kind of the same. We miss it. Starfield will be available on Windows PC and Xbox Series X at launch, and will be available day one on Game Pass.
