After the less-than-successful Shattered Space expansion, Bethesda‘s space RPG Starfield has been in the shadows. Its last major update came in November, adding two new mods and celebrating 15 million players. But that quiet may end as early as next week.
Insider Predictions
According to insider Odahfield, who previously correctly predicted the release of Creation Club and the release window of Shattered Space, we can expect news about Starfield next week. However, as the source notes, it will be “not the news you expect”.
Possible Announcements
There are two possible outcomes. The first is the announcement of Starborn, the supposed second expansion set to release this year. The second is the announcement of a PlayStation 5 version, which seems especially likely given recent rumors of a Switch 2 version and Microsoft’s announcements of Forza Horizon 5, Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition, and Age of Mythology: Retold coming to PS5.
State of Play Rumors
The announcement could possibly come during the next State of Play, which is rumored to take place on February 14. This event could be the perfect platform for Bethesda to reveal their plans for Starfield, whether it be a new expansion or a broader platform release.
Community Speculation
The Starfield community is buzzing with speculation. Some fans are hopeful for the Starborn expansion, which is expected to delve deeper into the game’s lore and provide new content and challenges. Others are excited about the possibility of a PlayStation 5 version, which would open up the game to a wider audience.
Conclusion
While the exact nature of the upcoming announcement remains uncertain, one thing is clear: Starfield fans have a lot to look forward to. Whether it’s new content or a new platform, the future of Starfield is bound to be exciting.
