How to (Potentially) Fix Starfield Crashing on Xbox Series X|S

Experience tells me that encountering crashes can significantly dampen enjoyment, especially when playing an intricate game like Starfield, where one aims to become engrossed in its expansive exploration and engaging side quests. Ideally, you’d prefer to immerse yourself without frequent system or game restarts. Here are some solutions that might help you optimize your play on Xbox Series X|S for a smoother Starfield experience:

Restart your game or console should the issue persist.
Remove any Creations, especially third-party Creations that do not fall under the Bethesda-featured sections of the mod menu.
Ensure your console has adequate airflow and, if necessary, move it to a different position to prevent overheating.
Uninstall and reinstall the game as a last resort.

Instead of keeping your mods installed when experiencing issues, consider removing them first as this action might resolve the problem and save you from having to re-download the entire game, a process that could be lengthy based on your internet speed.
