The upcoming 2026 Starfield update is back in the spotlight after new reports indicate that Bethesda has shown the update behind closed doors, revealing a range of technical improvements and potential content including support for new platforms.
According to a report published by Windows Central, the upcoming update focuses mainly on developing the space flight system, as Bethesda is working to reduce reliance on loading screens and move towards a smoother and more continuous navigation within space, and these changes aim to provide a more free and fluid experience during exploration.
The report indicated that the Creation Engine has undergone significant technical improvements to support these modifications, with plans to use these developments in the future in other games from Bethesda’s studio, reflecting a long-term approach to modernizing the studio’s technical structure.
Rumors also claim that the update may bring with it the upcoming PlayStation 5 and Switch 2 versions, as the development team is said to be working on optimizing the game’s performance for low-power devices, including handhelds.
However, there is no clear consensus about the size of this update, as some sources indicate that it will not reach the level of huge updates such as Cyberpunk 2.0, while others are more optimistic about its content and its impact on the gaming experience, so it is advisable to treat this information with caution as it is not based on an official announcement from Bethesda so far.
In a related context, Bethesda recently hinted at a project called Terran Armada in a post celebrating the anniversary of Starfield, and other reports indicated that the official announcement of the PlayStation 5 version may not take place this year.
As the official silence continues, the Starfield update remains shrouded in speculation, awaiting direct confirmation from Bethesda about the future of the game and the expected changes to its core experience.
