The latest Starfield update is here. It delivers QoL improvements like an unlimited frame rate option for Xbox Series X and much more. Plus, Bethesda is celebrating 15 million players!
“Thank you to the over 15 million players who have embarked on a journey through the stars in Starfield!”
“We are thrilled that so many of you have embarked on this journey with us and we value your feedback. We’re always looking for ways to improve your gaming experience and wanted to let our community know about the recent adjustments we’ve made to Starfield.”
Included is a free “Creation” that you can check out below. Plus, there are now Achievement-Friendly Creations!
“We are pleased to announce that we have implemented a feature you have highly requested. Starting with the November update, Starfield creations published through the Verified Creators program will have the option to be Achievement Friendly. This means that certain creations will no longer block achievements.”
“If you already have a Starfield creation installed, we recommend keeping an eye on the Creations menu in Starfield or the Bethesda Creations page to check the status of the game. Achievements will not be retroactively unlocked for previous saves containing creations, even if those creations are now achievement-friendly.”
