Bethesda Game Studios has just released an exciting new update for Starfield, packed with fresh content, features, and crucial bug fixes. Whether you're a veteran explorer or new to the Settled Systems, this update promises to enhance your gameplay experience. Here's a detailed look at what's new:



Creations Are Here!


One of the most significant additions in this update is the introduction of Creations. This new feature allows players to access and play a variety of new content, including missions, gear, skins, and weapons. Notably, this includes Bethesda's own Trackers Alliance missions, such as "The Vulture." For those who own the Premium Edition of Starfield, an additional 1000 Creation Credits are available to use in the in-game menu.

For the creative minds out there, Bethesda has also released the Creation Kit for Starfield. Available as a separate download on Steam, this toolkit enables players to craft their own content, expanding the possibilities within the game.



New Missions: Trackers Alliance


The update introduces thrilling new missions under the Trackers Alliance banner. These missions are designed to immerse you in the life of a bounty hunter, offering rich storylines and engaging gameplay. The first mission, "The Starjacker," involves contact with a mysterious Tracker in various settlements. This mission sets the stage for your bounty-hunting adventures across the Settled Systems.

In addition to "The Starjacker," players can access "The Vulture" mission via the new Creations menu. This mission promises more intense hunts and deeper immersion into the bounty hunter role.



Bounty Scanning and Mission Boards


Enhancing the bounty hunting experience, the update brings in the bounty scanner system. This tool allows you to identify and track targets with bounties on their heads, giving you the option to either eliminate or peacefully resolve these encounters. For those looking for more challenges, the Elite Trackers Alliance mission board offers additional missions to test your skills.



Crafting Enhancements: Melee and Ammo


Crafting enthusiasts will appreciate the new tiers for melee weapons and the ability to modify them, providing more options for close-combat customization. Additionally, ammo crafting has been introduced, allowing players to research and craft their preferred types of ammunition at an Industrial Workbench.
