Starfield is a new IP that Bethesda has invested heavily in, and although the game was not released to the satisfaction of players, the update of the game itself will continue. Todd Howard, director of Bethesda's studios, said that Starfield's first story DLC, "Shattered Space," is scheduled to launch in the fall of 2024, and is also thinking about improving Bethesda's development efficiency.
While Shattered Spaces is still a long way off, a minor update to Starfield will be available in a few days. The new update patch will implement useful features such as city maps, ship modification system optimization, and more. Bethesda officials also learned about players' feedback and requirements for game optimization and new content. At the same time, Bethesda officials will continue to support and update "Starfield" for many years to come.
Starfield support lasts for years, which may not be good news for Elder Scrolls and Fallout fans, as it takes years for Bethesda to launch an RPG, and Todd Howard himself knows that. In an interview, Todd Howard said that it takes a long time for Bethesda to make a game, so he thinks the next thing the studio needs to focus on is to ensure that the game is of high quality while also increasing production.
I'm glad that Bethesda finally understands this, after all, at the moment when the live-action series "Fallout" is popular, it has indeed driven the sales of the "Fallout" series of games. Microsoft, which has now become the owner of Bethesda's financies, should also hope that Bethesda can strike while the iron is hot. At the same time, Bethesda can now collaborate with other members of Microsoft's Xbox game studio, such as Obsidian, the "Microsoft model worker" who developed Fallout: New Vegas.
