Starfield by Bethesda was everything a player passionate about space games could talk about, at least before the release of Sony’s Helldivers 2. While it might have been overshadowed by the amazing releases 2024 has seen so far, it is still a great game waiting for its spotlight to come around once again, and PS5 players would not be able to enjoy it when it does.
Luckily, the spotlight might be here sooner than expected, as the developers have revealed how they plan to release a DLC pack for the game. Rumored to come out before the end of 2024, Shattered Space DLC just might be what the game needs to come out again on the top.
What Do We Know About Starfield’s Shattered Space DLC And Its Expected Release Date So Far
Fans got to know more about the upcoming extension for the game via the Starfield End of the Year update blog post. While the post was mostly filled with the achievements surrounding how far the game has come, it also included an announcement unveiling how a new DLC titled Shattered Space is under development.
The post also reveals how the expansion will bring the player new story content, new locations, new gear, and much more. The DLC will be made available to those who own the game’s premium and constellation editions at no cost, as it is included in the pack where it was first teased. Unfortunately, those who own the base game would need to potentially pay more out of their pockets if they would like to access the expansion.
There is no official announcement for the DLC’s release date yet, however, a recent update on Starfield’s Steam backend has got fans excited as an unknown file was uploaded on February 28. While nothing remains confirmed, this just might mean the developers are getting ready to prepare for the DLC’s testing and release soon by possibly uploading it on the game’s official Steam page.
Why PS5 Players Will Be Potentially Losing Out On A Great Experience
With amazing exclusives being released on both Xbox and PlayStation every single month, the difference between the player base keeps growing. The process has been accelerated ever since the exclusive release of Helldivers 2 on PS5 back in February, which has prompted Xbox fans to look forward to an upcoming title, Jump Ship, which is called to be a healthy mix of Sea of Thieves and Helldivers 2.
Unfortunately, it is not only Xbox players that are missing out, as the release of Starfield’s Shattered Space will remain exclusive to Microsoft’s platform and PC. One might wonder if Starfield can be still released on PlayStation considering how Xbox is soon bringing 4 of its exclusives to other platforms, which is unfortunately a theory that has already been debunked by the CEO of Xbox, Phil Spencer.
