Starfield
Starfield has a lot riding on its shoulders, both as the newest Bethesda Game Studios release since 2015’s Fallout 4, and also as the studio’s first new IP in a quarter of a century. After exploring fantasy in Elder Scrolls and the post-apocalypse in Fallout, Starfield is Bethesda’s take on space-faring science fiction. While the setting is new, Bethesda has described what sounds like a very Bethesda game, with an open-world structure reminiscent of its predecessors. It will also be the first of Bethesda’s games to launch exclusively on Microsoft platforms following the company’s acquisition in 2021. So if you’ve got an Xbox Series X/S or a gaming PC that can run it, Starfield is launching later this year.
