Starfield’s largest update yet is launching on May 15th. It adds several much-requested features, like proper Surface Maps for planets, indicating points of interest and markers for vendors in the major cities. You can fast travel to the latter from the map or your Scanner, which should make it much easier to quickly sell excess items.
The new gameplay options also debut, allowing players to tailor their experience as they see fit. You can alter carrying weight, make combat easier, space combat more challenging, access your cargo from anywhere and much more (which confer bonus XP). Those who want to challenge their high-level characters can also select a new Extreme difficulty.
Shipbuilders get new interior customization tools, allowing for decorations similar to outposts, and it’s also possible to respec your appearance and Traits in New Game Plus. Other improvements include turning off the dialogue camera to view scenes from any perspective, new tabs for Containers and Barter menus, and more.
Stay tuned for more details on the update en route to its launch on Xbox Series X/S and PC.
