In the vast expanse of the gaming universe, one title has captured the attention of online gaming enthusiasts and space explorers alike: Starfield's Shattered Space. Developed by Bethesda Game Studios—the team behind the critically acclaimed Elder Scrolls and Fallout series—Starfield promises to deliver an immersive experience set in a sprawling science fiction universe.


As details about the game and its upcoming expansion, Shattered Space, emerge, players are eagerly anticipating what lies ahead. In this blog, we'll delve into the story of Starfield, dissect the mechanics of Shattered Space, speculate on its availability on Game Pass, and ponder the possibility of future DLCs.


Starfield: Shattered Space Story

At the heart of Starfield lies a rich narrative set against the backdrop of space exploration. In the distant future, humanity has ventured beyond Earth, colonizing distant planets and forging alliances with alien species. Players step into the role of a spacefaring adventurer, tasked with unraveling the mysteries of the cosmos and charting their course through the stars.


Shattered Space, the upcoming expansion for Starfield, promises to expand upon this narrative foundation. While details are scarce, teasers and trailers have hinted at a universe in turmoil, where ancient powers awaken and cosmic forces collide. Players can expect new worlds to explore, formidable adversaries to overcome, and alliances to forge in the face of imminent danger. With promises of epic space battles and interstellar intrigue, Shattered Space is poised to propel players deeper into the lore of Starfield's universe.


Starfield's Shattered Space Release

The release of Shattered Space represents a significant milestone for both Bethesda Game Studios and the legions of fans eagerly awaiting its arrival. While an exact release date has yet to be announced, anticipation is running high as players prepare to embark on their next great adventure. With promises of expanded content and enhanced gameplay, Shattered Space aims to build upon the success of its predecessor and offer players new challenges to overcome and worlds to explore.

Gameplay Insights

Central to the allure of Starfield is its gameplay mechanics, which combine elements of exploration, combat, and role-playing to create a truly immersive experience. In Shattered Space, players can expect a host of new mechanics and features designed to enhance their gameplay experience. From customizable starships to dynamic space battles, Shattered Space aims to push the boundaries of what's possible in the realm of online gaming.


One of the most anticipated features of Shattered Space is its expanded customization options. Players will have the ability to customize their starships, outfitting them with a variety of weapons, shields, and engines to suit their playstyle. Whether they prefer to engage in fast-paced dogfights or strategic battles of attrition, the game promises to offer something for every type of player.


In addition to ship customization, Shattered Space will also introduce new gameplay mechanics, such as planetary exploration and resource gathering. Players will be able to land on alien worlds, explore their environments, and uncover hidden treasures and secrets scattered throughout the cosmos. With procedurally generated planets and a vast universe to explore, the game offers endless opportunities for discovery and adventure.


Will Shattered Space be on Game Pass? 

One burning question on the minds of many players is whether Starfield's Shattered Space will be available on Game Pass. While Bethesda Game Studios has yet to confirm any specific details regarding the game's availability on the subscription service, past collaborations between Bethesda and Microsoft suggest that it's a distinct possibility.


In recent years, Microsoft has made a concerted effort to expand the library of games available on Game Pass, striking deals with major developers and publishers to bring their titles to the service. Given Bethesda's acquisition by Microsoft in 2020, it's not unreasonable to assume that Shattered Space could eventually find its way onto Game Pass, offering subscribers access to the latest content from one of the industry's most beloved studios.


However, until official confirmation is provided by Bethesda or Microsoft, it's impossible to say for certain whether the game will be included in the Game Pass lineup. In the meantime, players will have to wait patiently for more information and keep their fingers crossed for a Game Pass announcement in the future.


Will There Be More Starfield DLC After Shattered Space? 

As players eagerly await the release of this title, many are already speculating about the possibility of future DLCs for Starfield. While Bethesda Game Studios has remained tight-lipped about their post-release plans, the success of previous titles such as Skyrim and Fallout 4 suggests that additional content is a strong possibility.


In the past, Bethesda has released substantial DLC expansions for its games, introducing new quests, characters, and locations to explore. With the expansive universe of Starfield ripe for further exploration, there's no shortage of potential avenues for future DLC content. Whether it's new storylines, alien civilizations, or cosmic anomalies, the universe of Starfield offers endless possibilities for expansion and discovery.


Of course, whether or not Bethesda chooses to pursue additional DLCs for Starfield will ultimately depend on the success of the base game and its upcoming expansion, Shattered Space. If the game proves to be a hit with players and critics alike, Bethesda will likely continue to support it with new content for years to come. However, until official announcements are made, players will have to content themselves with speculation and anticipation as they prepare to embark on their journey through the stars.


As the release of Starfield's Shattered Space draws ever closer, players are eagerly anticipating the next chapter in Bethesda Game Studios' epic sci-fi saga. With promises of immersive storytelling, dynamic gameplay mechanics, and the potential for future DLCs, Shattered Space is shaping up to be a must-play experience for online gaming enthusiasts and space explorers alike. As we eagerly await further details and the game's eventual release, one thing is certain: the cosmos has never looked so inviting.
