Starfield is a Game for Many Years Ahead

Exciting news for Starfield fans! Bethesda is working on new expansions for the PS5 version, starting from April 7th, with more story content to come in years ahead.

Marcus Thompson · 2 min read

Bethesda has announced the PlayStation 5 version of Starfield, along with a new expansion and updates for all versions of the game, emphasizing that this is "just another step in its journey," not the end. The PlayStation 5 launch is scheduled for April 7th. In a conversation with Eurogamer, Bethesda's Tim Lamb confirmed that the April 7th release will be "the best version of Starfield so far," while clarifying that it is not a 2.0 release. Lamb affirmed the plan to support Starfield for years with long-term plans. While he didn't confirm specifics beyond the April content, he noted that the team is actively working on the game. The PlayStation 5 version will utilize DualSense controller features like the light bar, adaptive triggers, and touchpad. On a PlayStation 5 Pro console, players can choose between Pro Performance Mode for smoother gameplay or Pro Visual Mode for enhanced graphics. The standard PS5 edition of Starfield will cost $49.99. A Premium Edition will also be available, both digitally and physically, and includes Starfield's soundtrack, a digital artbook, the Shattered Space DLC, and the Terran Armada DLC. Pre-orders for both editions are now open on the PlayStation Store.

Bethesda will release two major updates on April 7th: the Terran Armada story DLC expansion and a free major update called Free Lanes. Lamb indicated future story expansions, stating, "There are more stories and ideas we want to pursue." Separately, a recent update for PlayStation Portal introduced a 1080p High Quality mode, along with user experience improvements.
