September 6, 2024 marks Starfield’s one-year anniversary. To mark the occasion, Bethesda has decided to reach out to the community.
The Starfield team thanked players and also reminded them of the Shattered Space expansion:
“Thank you to the millions of players who have made Settled Systems their home, you’ve made this an incredible first year for Starfield.”
Bethesda assured that Starfield users will find much more interesting things (they didn’t specify what exactly), starting with the first story add-on to the game, Shattered Space, which will be released on September 30.
The developers also briefly told what to expect from the future add-on:
more than 50 locations on a new planet (Va’ruun’kai);
new (nasty, according to the developers) grenades made of organic material;
encounters with cosmites, pirates of the Blood Fleet and cultists of the House of Va’ruun;
clashes with new dangerous enemies, including the horrors of gravity vortices.
Starfield recently received a long-awaited update with ground transport, which should make planet exploration easier. However, according to SteamDB data, this did not significantly increase online.
