A week ago, an industry insider shared their knowledge regarding Bethesda’s plans to launch Starfield at the end of 2021 . According to a short post on ResetEra forums, the company was allegedly aiming at a 2021 release date as of a few months ago. These plans could’ve been impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which has negatively affected many titles that are being currently developed. The insider also added that the alleged 2021 release was being discussed at the end of 2020, which basically means that a lot could’ve changed since t
Another industry insider, Skullzi , who is known for gaming investigations and reports, has shared a leaked screenshot allegedly taken from an in-development build of Starfield . Although the screenshot had poor quality, it nonetheless represented a huge leap forward in terms of improved visuals compared to other Bethesda’s RPGs. Realistic lighting, reflections, shadows, and detailed environments implied that Starfield could be a true next-gen title. In the bottom-left corner, the picture included the same piece of HUD that was present on previously leaked Starfield screenshots, which added a bit of credibility. But as the story was rapidly developing, Skullzi had to take down the post on Twitter since some users claimed the leak was fake. They pointed out a visible similarity between the alleged screenshot and environmental walking simulator Mýrdalssandur, Iceland . Skullzi's source (presumably from Bethesda) later confirmed that the leak was 100% f
In a new digital interview conducted with Todd Howard during the Brighton Digital 2020 conference, the highly anticipated original Starfield IP from Bethesda has finally become less of a mystery. As revealed by one of the studio's foremost developers, the game will be strictly single-player with no multiplayer components included, and it's being developed with mod support in mind. Howard also shared that Starfield is expected to become the biggest game for the studio so far, as the development team is using procedural generation to create huge landmasses as part of the level design process, while cities will be larger in scale and more expansive. Additionally, the team itself is roughly 4 to 5 times bigger than the number of developers involved in creating Skyrim or Fallout
A supposed leak of Starfield screenshots may have just been verified by the unlikeliest of sources: a t-shirt worn by a Bethesda developer. The screenshots in question leaked in September, offering a brief glimpse at a possible player character, a spaceship design, and the HUD of Starfield . Bethesda has neither confirmed nor denied the validity of the leak to d
Every tiny bit of information regarding Starfield is valuable due to the overall scarcity of details present. With that in mind, the latest few revelations by Howard will likely ramp up the anticipation to a whole new level for Bethesda faithful. Considering the involvement of procedural generation, the game’s world is likely to consist of several massive areas across it's in-game galaxy/universe, complete with unique planets, which sounds revolutionary for Bethesda’s games' traditionally singular, hand-crafted locations. On top of that, the absence of any multiplayer components will no doubt be a huge relief to those disappointed by online-oriented Fallout
The announcements of Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6 generated a lot of excitement among fans, but the long silence has dampened things pretty considerably. Bethesda swears that Starfield will be worth the long wait , but before too long, it's going to have to give fans something. This engine overhaul is worth getting excited about, to be sure, but it still pales in comparison to any actual, solid news on either Starfield or The Elder Scrolls
Starfield was announced at E3 2018, and since then, next to nothing has been revealed about the game. The few scraps of information that Bethesda has made public since - like the fact that Starfield will be an exclusively single-player game - have come very recently. At its reveal, Bethesda said that there was still a long wait in store for Starfield, and there are no hints as to when that wait will be over yet. All that’s known on the subject is that Starfield is expected to launch before the long-awaited Elder Scrolls
Even though there's still plenty to learn about Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI , Bethesda has plenty of time to divulge that information. Hopefully, the coming months are years start to shed more light on each project and their potential arrival da
That made the potential Starfield screenshot leak this fall even more exciting, as it represented the first look at an otherwise mysterious project from one of the biggest game developers around. While their validity was called into question at the time, it now seems more likely that they were legitimate. That’s thanks to Bethesda managing director Ashley Cheng, Https://Starfieldgalaxy.com/ who recently appeared in a montage from Develop:Brighton, where Todd Howard was accepting a Develop:Star Award. As spotted by Reddit user Rynderend , Cheng is seen wearing a Starfield shirt with a logo on the sleeve identical to the one shown on the character’s spacesuit in the leaked Starfield screenshot. The matching logos lend credence to the screenshot being real, as it would be quite the coincidence if Bethesda just happened to pick the same design for its Starfield merchand
