Starfield Is Getting a New Doom Inspired Quest

Highlights

  • Starfield will receive a free Doom-inspired quest with special rewards, available through the RPG’s Creation Kit.
  • Fans are excited for the At Hell’s Gate quest developed by Kinggath Creations, known for Fallout 4 mods.
  • Bethesda plans to release post-launch content for Starfield, including the Shattered Space DLC and more fan-made quests.

As a long-time Bethesda enthusiast with a soft spot for their intricate worlds and captivating narratives, I must admit that I’m absolutely thrilled about the upcoming “At Hell’s Gate” quest for Starfield. Having been hooked on mods like Kinggath Creations’ Sim Settlements series in Fallout 4, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgia and anticipation for this crossover with Doom.

2024’s QuakeCon was launched by Bethesda with the exciting news that the game Starfield is set to include a free mission inspired by Doom, offering exclusive prizes. The exact launch date for this new quest in Starfield remains unknown, but it will be accessible through the RPG’s Creation Kit.

The Creation Kit, which has been an essential tool in Bethesda’s game development for titles like Skyrim, Fallout 4, and more recently Starfield, provides users with an easy way to access mods for their preferred games regardless of the platform they play on. This also allows modders to earn income from their creative works. However, the introduction of Starfield’s Creation Kit sparked controversy among fans due to some expensive mod costs. Some community members even argued that it established a potentially harmful precedent by making official Bethesda questlines exclusive behind a paywall.

Despite the fact that the first downloadable content (DLC) for Starfield hasn’t been released yet, there is ongoing speculation about a potential second DLC. While fans eagerly anticipate new material from Bethesda, the studio has confirmed that additional fan-created quests are imminent. At QuakeCon 2024, it was revealed that a mini-quest inspired by Doom would be added to Starfield in the future. A brief teaser video showcased some of the quest’s action, and it was mentioned that this content would become available through Starfield Creations at an as-yet undisclosed date.

Starfield Fans React to Epic New Doom Quest

The forthcoming adventure, titled “At the Gates of Hell,” is being developed by the renowned modding group Kinggath Creations. Known for their popular “Sim Settlements” series in Fallout 4, they have now turned their attention to Starfield, planning a questline reminiscent of Doom. Previously, they’ve created numerous mods for games like The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Fallout 4. Fans are eagerly anticipating this new project.

In Starfield, there are numerous mods that enhance the gameplay significantly, yet only a small number introduce interconnected questlines with other major Bethesda titles. This has sparked excitement among the community as an accomplished modding team plans to merge Starfield and Doom. On Reddit, Snagglesnatch, who isn’t particularly fond of Doom, expressed enthusiasm for Kinggath’s work alone, making them eager to try the new mod. RedComet313 also shared their anticipation, praising Kinggath as one of the rare mod creators whose works they wholeheartedly support, stating that his creations are not mere copies.

Right now, Bethesda is getting ready to unveil the Shattered Space expansion for Starfield, planned for release around Fall 2024. However, if you’re not a fan of adding new adventures through mods, take heart! Todd Howard from Bethesda has confirmed that there’s more post-launch content in store for Starfield. In fact, they’ve already started planning for a second year’s worth of DLC, suggesting a promising future for this game.
