Bethesda's Starfield: Every Fact & Rumour So Far

6. Multiple Worlds And Space Travel

This stems from a series of leaks that came last year in conjunction with the leak of "Starfield" as a working title. Whilst the leaks have been given a shred of credibility considering the correctness of the game's title, this is still to be taken with a grain of salt.

However, this seems like a likely inclusion.

Simply based on the fact that Starfield is a space sci-fi game, we can expect the usual trimmings. Space travel, exotic worlds, and a creative cast of alien creatures. This leak is hardly reimagining the genre and is instead simply quoting the Wikipedia page about science-fiction tropes.

However, if we are going to indulge leaks and wild speculation, then there are some things to be discussed. Are we looking at a No Man's Sky style of space travel, with an intricate focus on your exploration of actual space. Or are is the focus going to be on planets? On simply taking the ideas of Fallout and Skyrim and placing them on a brand new alien frontier? Or perhaps both.

It would be nice to see a proper game developer take a stab at the No Man's Sky style of space travel, but with AAA polish.

I like video games, writing and writing about video games. Expect sarcasm and the dry wit of a Brit. And the occasional rant of a unhappy Scot. You know... the usual.
