Today we return to talk about Starfield, Bethesda's space epic, thanks to a report by the well-known journalist Jez Corden of Windows Central, based on information leaked from a closed-door event held recently by the developers.

According to reports, it seems that Bethesda is working on substantial updates for the Creation Engine, the engine that moves the title, so much so that there is talk of a Starfield 2.0 on the way. The main objective of these technical interventions would be to deeply review the game mechanics, first of all space exploration. Sources indicate that we may soon see a much freer and more continuous flight system, drastically reducing the reliance on loading screens that fragmented the original experience.

The rumors also speak of the second major expansion of the game, which past rumors have indicated with the name of "Terran Armada", suggesting that it will be set on Earth: it seems that this was planned internally for 2025, but Microsoft and Bethesda have decided to move the launch to the first half of 2026 after seeing that GTA VI has been postponed to the end of next year, This gives the team additional time to refine the content.

However, the sources consulted by Corden appear divided on the actual scope of this update: if on the one hand there are those who describe it with enthusiasm comparing it to a sort of "Cyberpunk 2.0" operation capable of relaunching the title, also in view of the rumored launch on PS5 and Nintendo Switch 2, others invite caution by downsizing the vastness of the changes.

What seems certain is that Tim Lamb and the development team are working on new game systems and improvements to the "quality of life" to make our adventures among the stars more rewarding. We just have to wait for official communications to find out what awaits fans of the game!
