Starfield’s incoming major update, Free Lanes, adds a swathe of new interplanetary content to the space sim that forgot to simulate space. And it’s a welcome, generous update along with the new Terran Armada DLC and an exciting new PS5 version. But let’s be clear: it doesn’t fundamentally change Starfield, or fix any of its perceived issues, because that very sense of immersion that makes Starfield a Bethesda game sits at the heart of why Creation Engine 3 is ill-suited to making a space game. Could Free Lanes be Starfield 2.0, and give the game a new lease of life like No Man’s Sky and Cyberpunk 2077 have enjoyed? And what does it mean for The Elder Scrolls 6?
Will Starfield Ever Get a Cyberpunk-Style Renaissance?
