<br>A week ago, an industry insider shared their knowledge regarding Bethesda’s plans to launch Starfield at the end of 2021 . According to a short post on ResetEra forums, the company was allegedly aiming at a 2021 release date as of a few months ago. These plans could’ve been impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which has negatively affected many titles that are being currently developed. The insider also added that the alleged 2021 release was being discussed at the end of 2020, which basically means that a lot could’ve changed since t<br> <br>An open world first-person shooter in the same vein as the ever-popular Fallout series, Starfield is thought to exist in the same universe as radroaches and Pip-Boy, but takes the premise up into the cosmos.

Although the screenshot had poor quality, it nonetheless represented a huge leap forward in terms of improved visuals compared to other Bethesda’s RPGs. Realistic lighting, reflections, shadows, and detailed environments implied that Starfield could be a true next-gen title. In the bottom-left corner, the picture included the same piece of HUD that was present on previously leaked Starfield screenshots, which added a bit of credibility. But as the story was rapidly developing, Skullzi had to take down the post on Twitter since some users claimed the leak was fake. They pointed out a visible similarity between the alleged screenshot and environmental walking simulator Mýrdalssandur, Iceland .

<br>While there’s some speculation that Starfield will be released in 2021, there’s still no word from Bethesda on the matter. Either way, it’s likely that more concrete details about the game will start coming to light soon. With two years having passed since Starfield was unveiled and the next-gen platforms that it’ll launch on soon to be in players’ hands, the time is right for Bethesda to really start hyping its next games up, particularly if Microsoft wants to show off what to expect from its latest acquisiti<br><br> <br>So what exactly did he mean by next-generation?

Hopefully, the coming months are years start to shed more light on each project and their potential arrival da<br> <br>Starfield has reportedly been in development since Fallout 3 's release in 2008 and was reported to be a big reveal of E3 2017 . Now, could it be second time lucky for the space-faring RPG? Bethesda has developed a habit of announcing games just months before they hit the shelves, so E3 could be the perfect time for Starfield to unveil itself. However, with Starfield trademarks having existed for a number of years now, who is to say that the latest round of rumors are anything to take note<br><br> <br>The inclusion of #BE3 twinkling in stars is the biggest nod that there'll be more information on the highly anticipated Starfield . As it stands, little is known about the ambitious single-player game set in the depths of space , other than the fact Starfield has been in the works since 2008 . With Starfield already said to be about next-gen hardware and next-gen gaming , it's no surprise that there'll be a bit of a wait before it finally hits consoles even if this year's E3 turns out to be the home of Xbox's next-gen hardware announceme<br><br> <br>That made the potential [https://Starfieldgalaxy.com/ Starfield Missions|https://starfieldgalaxy.com/] screenshot leak this fall even more exciting, as it represented the first look at an otherwise mysterious project from one of the biggest game developers around. While their validity was called into question at the time, it now seems more likely that they were legitimate. That’s thanks to Bethesda managing director Ashley Cheng, who recently appeared in a montage from Develop:Brighton, where Todd Howard was accepting a Develop:Star Award. As spotted by Reddit user Rynderend , Cheng is seen wearing a Starfield shirt with a logo on the sleeve identical to the one shown on the character’s spacesuit in the leaked Starfield screenshot. The matching logos lend credence to the screenshot being real, as it would be quite the coincidence if Bethesda just happened to pick the same design for its Starfield merchand<br><br> <br>Bethesda is reaching for the stars at this year's E3 event in Los Angeles, hinting that the acclaimed video game publisher will be showing off more about the upcoming release of Starfield and plenty of other tit<br><br> <br>Even though Bethesda Game Studios now has four offices scattered around the world, with a new location recently announced to be in Dallas , Hines also made clear that just because the development team has more staff than ever before doesn't mean development will go by that much more quickly. In fact, when talking about The Elder Scrolls VI specifically, Hines said that it likely won't be out until the next console generation has arrived. "I don't even know what the world is going to be like when it comes out; there will be a different console generation by then, I'm sure," Hines sta<br><br> <br>Hines continued by also talking about how even though Starfield and The Elder Scrolls VI have been officially announced, that doesn't mean they're even close to being ready. "I try really hard to manage people's expectations. It's not like ' Fallout 76 this year, Starfield next year, and then TES6 the year after.' The timeline isn't any different. What's different is just trying to be transparent and say, 'Don't freak out, the next thing we're doing is single-player [in Starfield], [and] we are making TES<br>
