Bethesda’s Starfield has looked like it’s going to be one of the best RPG games of all time for quite a while now, but even with confirmation of the Starfield release date, it still didn’t really feel like we were ever going to play around in this sci-fi epic. It was announced well-over 1,500 days ago, after all. Now, though, at long last, we have a specific Starfield release time to talk about; it’s never felt more real.
Ahead of Starfield’s early access period, the Xbox Store has finally started showing us when we can play Starfield; technically, you can actually play it before September. This detail was spotted by Reddit user ‘AFuryJWest‘ – who highlighted this Xbox Store appearance from Iowa.
The Starfield early access release time on Xbox is 16:00 PST / 19:00 EST on August 31, and 00:00 BST on September 1. At the moment, there’s no information on when you can start playing on PC. However, we would expect this to be the same.
Yeah, that really isn’t that far away – and, it means you can technically play it before September. Those of you who want to prepare yourselves for this game can find out more about Starfield’s preload plans here. If you want to know more about some of the Starfield planets you’ll come across and the Starfield characters you’ll brush spacesuit shoulders with, you can check out the latest trailer below:
If you’re looking forward to Starfield on Xbox Game Pass, you’re going to be waiting a little longer. However, there are quite a few reasons why you should consider picking up a Starfield pre-order. You should also look at expanding your storage space with one of the best Xbox expansion cards – this isn’t going to be a small game.
