Starfield: Here’s What Comes in Each Edition

Estimated reading time: 5 minutes

Starfield is coming to Xbox Series X|S and PC on September 6, 2023. It’s a massive new game from Bethesda — specifically from Todd Howard and the development team behind the mainline Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. This game has you exploring a galaxy with over a thousand planets, taking on missions, speccing out your ship, engaging in space dogfights, and a whole lot more. Starfield is up for preorder now in a handful of editions (see it at Amazon, or GAME if you’re UK-based). Below, we have all the details you need to pick the edition you want. Let’s dive in.

Before we get into the various editions, you should know this: if you’re a Game Pass subscriber, you’ll have full access to Starfield on launch day. That’s good news for anyone who doesn’t want to drop $70+ up front.
