It seems that the highly-anticipated Starfield Shattered Space DLC might be on the horizon, sooner than expected, or at least a reveal could be coming soon.
After being available for a few months, Starfield—one of the most anticipated games of recent years—might be revealing some fresh information to gamers who are still playing. Fans have discovered a new piece of evidence that may indicate planning for Starfield Shattered Space, however, nothing official has been revealed as of yet.
The game’s Steam listing reveals a new addition in the DLC section, labeled as an “Unknown App” according to SteamDB. It was added to the game’s DLC section on the backend database of Steam. While this may not confirm anything, fans often point out that updates to a game’s Steam file can signal significant developments, as seen in the case of Elden Ring.
Fortunately, here, it was already revealed that a Starfield DLC was in the pipeline, with Shattered Space being the first on the list. The details of this DLC’s offerings remain undisclosed, but the activity on SteamDB suggests that preparations are being made for its release. This could indicate that an official announcement for the DLC is on the horizon, potentially drawing back players who may have taken a break from the game or enticing new players to pick up Starfield.
Also, there are plans already in motion for an official mod support system, allowing players to integrate creations from others into the game. This potential addition could introduce new challenges and exploration opportunities, including quests, items, and locations.
But as of now, Bethesda Game Studios has not provided a release date for both the planned mod support through the Creation Kit and the Shattered Space DLC. However, all owners of the base game are set to receive free access to both the Creation Kit and the Shattered Space expansion.
Also, version 1.9.51 of Starfield has recently been released, and it includes a number of visual enhancements such as enhanced lighting in up to 73 areas, a better character creation menu, better widescreen compatibility, and much more. Despite these updates, Starfield has faced some criticism for not fully meeting player expectations, considering the high anticipation built over its decade-long development. The upcoming Starfield Shattered Space Expansion is hoped to alter this perception and deliver a more fulfilling experience.
But whether the news about the imminent reveal of the Starfield Shattered Space DLC from Bethesda holds true is something fans will have to wait for.
