As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of gaming under my belt, I can’t help but feel a tinge of nostalgia when I hear about Bethesda’s latest expansion for Starfield. Having played every Elder Scrolls and Fallout game since their inception, I was naturally drawn to Starfield when it launched last year. The open-world sci-fi setting felt like a fresh take on the formula that had captivated me for years.


Bethesda has unveiled the exact release schedule and suggested level for the upcoming DLC of Starfield, titled Shattered Space. Launched last year, Starfield generally received positive feedback, particularly for its successful adaptation of Bethesda’s open-world style to a science fiction backdrop. Since then, Bethesda has consistently updated Starfield, with one of the latest updates being one of the most substantial.

A more recent version of “Starfield” has incorporated the REV-8 land vehicle, a feature widely appreciated as a significant enhancement for gameplay quality. Furthermore, the underwhelming maps of “Starfield” have been improved upon in subsequent updates, enhancing the game’s appeal even beyond its initial launch. With the first expansion of “Starfield” approaching, many enthusiasts might be considering revisiting Bethesda’s expansive sci-fi open world.

For Starfield enthusiasts, mark your calendars! Bethesda has officially announced that the DLC will become available on Monday, September 30, at 8:00am Pacific Time, 10:00am Central Time, and 11:00am Eastern Time. To begin the expansion, you’ll need to own it and have completed the “One Small Step” quest, with a grav-jump to an orbit not currently in use by another mission or encounter. Keep in mind that while anyone can start the DLC immediately upon release, it is suggested that Starfield players reach level 35 prior to engaging with the expansion for optimal gameplay experience.
