Starfield has revealed details of its largest update yet, which is able to arrive on May 15 for all players. Nevertheless, it’s currently live in Steam Beta for PC players who want to ascertain it out. Considered one of the updates addresses certainly one of my biggest complaints with the sport: its surface maps. The May update has significantly improved the maps, as you possibly can see within the screenshot above and within the video below. They are actually way more detailed and really usable, unlike the unique surface maps.
The update may also add recent gameplay options, including the flexibility to fantastic tune difficulty for specific areas of the sport. For instance, players could make ground combat harder, but ship combat easier. Speaking of ships, Ship Decoration mode has been added to ship interiors, allowing players to customize their ships as they do with Outposts. The Starfield hoarders will likely be pleased to listen to there are actually Tabs to Container menus, making inventory management easier.
Other additions a part of Starfield’s May update include the flexibility to alter Traits and appearance after entering the Unity, a Dialogue camera toggle within the Settings, and Display settings for Xbox Series X to prioritize Visuals or Performance. See the complete list of bug fixes below, after the video from the developers.
