Starfield’s First Expansion, Shattered Space, To Release This Fall

Starfield’s first expansion, Shattered Space, is set to arrive this fall, according to director Todd Howard. Plus, a new update for Starfield is coming later this week that will make changes to ship-building mechanics and more. 

Howard revealed this and more about Starfield in a new interview with Kinda Funny, which is where the Bethesda executive producer also discussed Amazon’s Fallout TV show and the Fallout series in general, as reported by XboxEra. As for what to expect of Shattered Space, Howard didn’t say much. However, we already know it will bring new story content, locations, gear, and more to Starfield. 

As noted by XboxEra, Shattered Space will be free for all Starfield Deluxe Edition owners. 

As for the update coming to Starfield later this week, Howard says it will focus on the ship-building. This lines up with what the Starfield team shared last year in its 2024 plans for the game. Here’s what it said at the time: “For those who love ship building, we’ll also be expanding on ship customization with ship decorations, new ship building options, and more.”

Other updates scheduled for 2024 include new ways to travel, city maps, mod support, accessibility and additional difficulty options, and more.
