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

An open world first-person shooter in the same vein as the ever-popular Fallout series, Starfield is thought to exist in the same universe as radroaches and Pip-Boy, but takes the premise up into the cosmos. For the first time ever, the series could move away from the apocalyptic wasteland of the Commonwealth or New Vegas and head even further into the future. Given Fallout 's already dystopian tone, it would be amazing to see where Bethesda's imagination could go in sp

That future might be very far off, but Howard has apparently been contemplating Starfield for a very long time. He mentioned to Eurogamer that Bethesda began putting together a team after Fallout 4 's launch. Which was in late 2015. However, the initial ideas were born as far back as 2

In a lengthy essay published to Bethesda.net following Microsoft's acquisition, Todd Howard mentioned a scant bit of info about the two titles, if only to remind fans that they still exist. Howard's essay reflected on the legacy of Bethesda and its partnership with Xbox, which allowed it to bring Morrowind to the Xbox console back in 2002. Howard claims that being bought by Microsoft will allow Bethesda to make the most use of the Xbox Series X's next-gen technology to advance the development of both Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6 . Most notably, Howard said that the Series X's new hardware has led to Bethesda's biggest engine overhaul since Oblivion . To quote the man himself, " These new systems are optimized for the vast worlds we love to create, with generational leaps not just in graphics, but CPU and data streaming as wel

Upcoming titles The Elder Scrolls 6 and Starfield will be available on Xbox Game Pass on day one of their launches, according to Bethesda executive producer Todd Howard. Microsoft's acquisition of the company isn't yet wrapped up, but this news indicates both parties are confident the deal will finish without a hi

If that is indeed the case, it may herald a gradual overhaul of how players purchase and play games. It could lead to a phase out of physical and digital one-time purchase copies in favor of monthly subscription streaming services. Bethesda's status as a prolific studio with a considerable degree of clout may make it the standard bearer for such a revolution, or at the very least, the forerunner in Microsoft's ongoing studio acquisition campa

Todd Howard has promised that Bethesda's upcoming titles Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6 will be running on technology that represents the company's biggest engine overhaul since the release of Oblivion back in 2006. This bold claim comes in the wake of Microsoft's massive buyout of ZeniMax Studios and all of its associated studios, including Bethesda. The buyout cost Microsoft $7.5 billion and results in the company owning the rights not only to Elder Scrolls and starfield mods|https://starfieldgalaxy.com/ but to Doom , Fallout , and many other franchises as w

The gaming studio will once again be a big part of E3, and with a couple of months to go before the expo, the internet is awash with rumors and teases of potential announcements. Gaming fans are already pumped for Bethesda's potential Doom 2 announcement , but there's no denying that Starfield would be a noteworthy announcement in its own ri

Dubbed Fallout in space, the gaming world seems to have forgotten about Starfield until now. When a post by ResetEra user AAMARMO suggested that the title could be a mobile game, it was quickly rebuffed by fan Potterson's claims that not only will S tarfield follow in the footsteps of the Fallout games, but that it is coming to E3. Such wild claims could lead to Potterson being banned from the forum; however, administrators have issued the following statem

"We talked about [sci-fi] and then it really picked up steam when we registered the trademark about five years ago, and then we would talk about it from time to time, 'What are we going to do?' and then we started work right after Fallout 4 was finish

Fallout has already made a name for itself in the sci-fi genre, but just imagine a world where psychotic robots roam around the cavernous halls of a space station and take on the remnants of human life. The studio is clearly working on something big for E3, but it's best to take everything with a very large grain of salt for the time being. If Starfield really is coming though, prepare to look to the stars for something new, especially if the game makes its debut at
