Just under three years after its initial release on Xbox Series and PC, Starfield arrived on PS5 last week. Unfortunately, while many were hoping for a sort of Ultimate Edition featuring all updates and DLC, this version suffers from far too many issues.
In fact, players quickly reported major glitches on various forums. Several have also requested refunds from Sony. The culprits are bugs that block progress and repeated crashes.

There’s no doubt that Bethesda Game Studios has its job cut for the coming weeks.
