Starfield’s New Planet Has Over 50 New Locations, Bethesda Reveals

Bethesda has celebrated Starfield’s first birthday by sharing some new details on upcoming expansion Shattered Space.

The sci-fi role-playing shooter, which launched on September 6, 2023 as Bethesda’s first brand new franchise in years, gets its debut expansion Shattered Space on September 30, 2024.

In a tweet, Bethesda teased it has “much more coming” to Starfield beyond Shattered Space, but for now, revealed some fresh details on the expansion.

The highlight here is the addition of over 50 new locations to discover and explore across Va’ruun’kai (Va’ruun’kai is the new planet players get to visit during Shattered Space). This suggests Shattered Space will certainly keep Starfield fans busy when it comes out.

Elsewhere, there are new grenades to craft that stem from organic material you gather – “and it’s gross,” Bethesda added. There are “formidable” new enemies, too (“be on your guard for Redeemed and Vortex Horrors…”).

And finally, Bethesda said Starfield players haven’t seen the last of Zealots, Spacers, or the Crimson Fleet. “As you explore the planet be on the lookout for those taking advantage of the situation,” the developer added.

We gave Starfield a 7/10 when we reviewed it last year, writing at the time that it “has a lot of forces working against it, but eventually the allure of its expansive roleplaying quests and respectable combat make its gravitational pull difficult to resist.”
