2024 may not necessarily have been a bumper year for Starfield, but it did still receive a fair bit of content, from multiple free updates to an expansion in the form of Shattered Space. Thus far, the sci-fi RPG has had quite an uneventful 2025, but Bethesda says that’s going to change in the months ahead.
Responding to a fan on Twitter asking about what Bethesda Game Studios plans to do with Starfield in 2025, the developer stated that though it couldn’t share details just yet, it has things in the pipeline that it’s working on behind the scenes.
“We know you’re eager for an update, and we truly appreciate your passion for Starfield,” the studio wrote. “The team has been hard at work, and while we’re not ready to share specific details just yet, we have a lot of exciting things planned for the game this year that we can’t wait to talk about when the time is right.”
Presumably, Starfield has yet more free updates coming. Back in June last year, director Todd Howard revealed that Bethesda Game Studios had Year 2 updates planned, and also confirmed that the game would receive annual paid expansions. According to leaks (and a trademark filing), Starfield’s 2025 expansion will be called Starborn.
Starfield is available on Xbox Series X/S and PC. As of November, it has crossed 15 million players.
