Starfield has reportedly been in development since Fallout 3 's release in 2008 and was reported to be a big reveal of E3 2017 . Now, could it be second time lucky for the space-faring RPG? Bethesda has developed a habit of announcing games just months before they hit the shelves, so E3 could be the perfect time for Starfield Skills Guide|Https://Starfieldgalaxy.Com/ to unveil itself. However, with Starfield trademarks having existed for a number of years now, who is to say that the latest round of rumors are anything to take note
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
Speculation aside, players will likely see Bethesda present a huge gameplay portion before going into launch details on Starfield . Even if these leaked images are legitimate, they really only confirm the most base rumors about the game, serving the generate more hype for something that is almost completely unknown. That's the problem with showing logos at press conferences, they build undue hype for games before the real work is done. There's a huge risk in releasing a let down in the eyes of the public if a game with such buildup isn't the next big thing.

Several images first posted to the infamous 4Chan message boards have been shared across social media (thanks, Okami13_ ), purported to be screenshots from a 2018 build of Starfield . The first image shows a third-person perspective on an futuristic-looking astronaut wielding a shotgun according to the game's HUD, although the weapon is not seen on the player model. In addition to a health and stamina meter, there also appears to be a meter for oxygen, which would be a key component in any game that wants to realistically depict space exploration. The second image appears to be concept art of one of the game's spaceships, and it certainly matches the space station briefly seen in the game's official teaser trailer back in 2
Microsoft announced back in September it had purchased ZeniMax Media , which owns Bethesda and id Software, among other companies, for $7.5 billion. This dealt a massive blow to Sony in the console war leading up to the next-gen release this month. The acquisition, which should finish up sometime in 2021, gives Microsoft exclusive rights to the majority of Bethesda's best franchises, including Fallout , DOOM , and The Elder Scrolls , in addition to Bethesda's upcoming space RPG Starfield . Bethesda will still retain a certain degree of autonomy as developers will be able to publish titles for PlayStation on a "case by case" basis. However, Microsoft has gained a huge advantage in taking exclusivity of Bethesda's strongest tit
In addition to a larger world filled with procedurally generated content, Starfield's aesthetic will see a major improvement compared to previous games. A number of changes have been made to animation and rendering systems, according to Howard. Admittedly this could result in some pros and cons compared to Skyrim. For instance, Oblivion had better special effects and a more colorful world compared to Morrowind, but facial animations seemed more of a liability than an improvem
Bethesda's secretive space RPG Starfield is almost certainly going to miss 2021, as suggested by recent reporting about the state of the games industry. The COVID-19 pandemic is said to be affecting the industry so badly that the 2020 fiscal year was effectively " lost " in terms of development schedules, and publishers are learning to keep target release dates under wr
There's no sign the quoted sources are involved with Starfield , or even Bethesda, but Khan's evaluation of the pandemic on its own is likely enough to some to quash a recent rumor that Starfield could ship this year. That was itself a misinterpretation by Venture Beat , which claimed it was " probably 90% " sure the game would show at E3 2021 . A statement about it possibly shipping in November was later corrected as speculat
