Starfield Isn’t Coming to PS5 Anytime Soon

Starfield is by far one of the most anticipated game releases of 2023. Its extraterrestrial environment, mind-blowing visuals, and action-packed combat amazed players from its appearance in the 2018 official announcement teaser. This new space adventure will be the first from Bethesda Game Studios in over 25 years. This developer, known for popular games like Fallout 4 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, surely won’t disappoint.

Starfield launches on September 6, 2023. Players can only buy the open-world space RPG on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox Game Pass, and PC via Steam. You can also get the game on Xbox Play Anywhere, granting you access to it on Xbox and PC at no extra cost.

As much as we hate to admit it, it’s not shocking that Starfield won’t come to the PlayStation 5. CNN reported that Microsoft bought Bethesda Softworks’ parent company, ZeniMax, in 2020. Therefore, it is highly unlikely Starfield ever makes its way to Sony’s consoles.

The major technology corporation made the purchase hoping Xbox Game Pass subscriptions would go up. The company also believes the move “closes the content gap between Xbox and PlayStation.”

Microsoft’s $68.7 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard is some of the latest news in the tech companies pursuit to own different publishers. The acquisition is expected to be finalized some time in October of this year.

PC players should make sure their devices meet Starfield’s system requirements. Computers should have the following specifications for the game to run smoothly.
