What’s New in Starfield Update 1.14.74 (November 19)?

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the recent Starfield update 1.14.74 has been a breath of fresh air. The game, despite initial skepticism, has proven to be quite engaging and the latest patch has only made it better.


After the recent announcement that Starfield has surpassed 15 million players since its launch, defying the skeptics’ expectations, Bethesda unveiled a fresh update for their open-world game on November 19, 2024. The latest update, version 1.14.74, includes several bug fixes, performance enhancements, and adjustments to Quests. The update is a small file, approximately 1.2 GB in size, for PC users.
