Starfield: the coming best science fiction game, like, ever? (game video).

On November 11th, 2022, gaming giant Bethesda will release their much vaunted next-generation Sci-Fi game, Starfield for the PC and x-box. It will be Bethesda’s first new intellectual property in more than twenty-five years.

So, what is Starfield, exactly?

It is a space exploration role-playing game with more than a touch of Firefly. Let’s dive into Starfield specifics, including companions, factions, character creation, and the game’s futuristic setting.

Starfield is located in The Settled Systems, a region that stretches outward from the Solar System for around 50 light-years. Around the year 2310, the game’s two most powerful factions, the United Colonies and the Freestar Collective, fought a deadly Colony War. The game takes set 20 years after the Colony War, with the main groups living under an uneasy truce. The user will control a customizable character who is a member of Constellation, a space exploration organisation. The game may be played in first-person or third-person mode.
