Rumors swirling around Bethesda’s Starfield have been generating lots of discussion, with some even claiming that the game is imminent. While that doesn’t appear to be true, we are preparing to hear more about Bethesda’s sci-fi RPG sometime soon, possibly at E3. Here’s what we know.
Conversation surrounding Starfield sparked earlier this week, when journalist Jeff Grubb indicated that, at least according to his sources and understanding, Starfield will be exclusive to PC and Xbox platforms. That would be a major coup for Microsoft, which purchased Bethesda and subsequently said that the studio will make Xbox-exclusive games.
That, combined with proximity to E3, began speculation that we would see the game at Microsoft and Bethesda’s rumored combined press conference. Some even suggested this would be its big debut before ultimately releasing this fall, because the game is more-or-less already done. That’s not the case, though, according to journalists from multiple outlets including Game Informer’s Liana Ruppert and Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier.
