Bethesda Games revealed that Starfield will receive downloadable content in the future to add to the space-exploring concept. The official statement was made during the Starfield Direct presentation in June. Along with that, they revealed the name of the DLC – Starfield Shattered Space.
Starfield Shattered Space DLC will be a ‘story expansion’, meaning that the almost 60-hour gameplay will be stretched a bit further. It has no definite release date as of writing. Those gamers who pre-ordered the game from Microsoft Store or Steam will get access to the downloadable content once it is released. Currently, Starfield DLC is exclusively available in the Constellation Edition priced at $299.89 USD.
The Constellation Edition consists of the base game, the Shattered Space Story Expansion DLC, the Starfield digital artbook, an exclusive soundtrack, Steelbook Display Case, Constellation Patch, Starfield Chronomark Wristwatch with Case, and the Constellation Skin Pack that consists of Equinox Laser Rifle, Spacesuit, Helmet and Boost Pack.
Tentative Date of Release for Starfield DLC
Upon close examination, one may find that Bethesda Game Studios usually releases DLC content post three to six months after a game’s release. Multiple speculation reports and leaks have stated that Starfield Shattered Space DC will be made available as early as December 2023 or as late as March 2024.
Todd Howard, Creative Director and Producer at Bethesda Game Studios, also mentioned during an interview that there are plans to release mods in Starfield next year. What kind of mods are unknown. Luckily, there are numerous mods available in-game that are not licensed by Bethesda.
“With mod, you will be able to do almost anything, just like in our previous works. Mod support will be available next year, and we love it too, so we’ll do it in a big way.”
The first Starfield DLC could add more planets and extra-terrestrial beings to the overarching main story. New skins and weapons may also increase the chances of taking down the monsters. However, fans are demanding more content with NPCs, especially love interests, so Bethesda could focus on that feature.
That being said, the developers also announced that a Season Pass will be available in the game. It could be implemented in the game along with the Shattered Space Starfield DLC.
