Shattered Space DLC Release Date
The Shattered Space DLC for Starfield is expected to release around March 2024, following the pattern of previous Bethesda releases. This timing aligns with the release dates of DLC expansions for Fallout 4 and Skyrim. Players can look forward to new gameplay experiences and storylines in the DLC.
Potential Storylines
The DLC may explore the house Varoon backstory, a faction not fully explored in the main storyline of Starfield. The Resurgence of house Varoon could disrupt the peace enjoyed by the settled system. Another potential storyline is Earth’s Devastation, which might transport players back in time to witness the collapse of Earth’s atmosphere caused by Victor aer’s invention. Additionally, the Unity, a concept explored in the game’s New Game Plus mode, could result in a space fracture, dispersing the player’s existence across the Multiverse.
Xbox Game Pass and Sales Success
Contrary to the myth that Xbox Game Pass affects game sales, Starfield has achieved record sales despite being available on the subscription service. In September, Starfield was the best-selling game in the US, even surpassing add-on spending. The sales data does not account for Game Pass members who upgraded to the premium edition for early access. This success indicates that Game Pass did not hinder the game’s sales performance.
Mixed Reception and Lack of Weird and Crazy Moments
Some players have expressed disappointment with Starfield, comparing it to previous Bethesda games like Fallout and Elder Scrolls. The game is perceived as lacking the weird and crazy moments that made those games memorable. While Starfield has its own unique style and realistic approach to a space venture, some players miss the unexpected and bizarre elements found in Bethesda’s other titles.
