The next RPG blockbuster from Bethesda Game Studios has finally received new information. Starfield has been in development for some time now and there hasn't been any information yet. Howard Todd, director of Bethesda, recently sat down for an interview detailing Bethesda's plans, Starfield map details, and Xbox content.
There hasn't been anything concrete about Bethesda's first intellectual property in over 25 years until now. The game should have been made and released before The Elder Scrolls VI.
But thanks to an interview at Develop: Brighton 2020, some juicy details are now available for analysis, including whether the game is single-player or multiplayer, the size of the game, and more.
What it is?
Starfield is another RPG similar to Bethesda's successful Elder Scrolls and Fallout franchises. Only Starfield will be a complete sci-fi adventure.
One of the big takeaways from Todd Howard's interview is that it will be a completely single-player game. There is no mention of whether it will feature any kind of online crossover like Fallout 76. But it looks like the game will be more traditional solo.
How big is it?
According to rumors, Starfield is going to be a giant game. Howard reported that four to five times as many developers are working on the game as compared to previous games. This includes Skyrim and Fallout 4, which are big games already.
In short, the Starfield area is expected to be larger than the Fallout 76 map. The cities in Starfield will obviously be even larger than the cities from previous games.
The game should also get a good technical update. Starfield will run on an updated version of the Creation Engine. This should allay some concerns that it will look a little dated like some of their latest RPGs.
When will Starfield be released?
Howard was hesitant to give any indication as to when we can expect anything from this as Bethesda doesn't want any major details or footage to be revealed until Starfield is a lot more concrete and closer to completion. . This is to be expected, especially given that Fallout 76 had a less than stellar reception.
