Hello gamers and pop culture fans! I’m very excited to tell you that Starfield was one of the top three best-selling games on Steam in 2023, beaten only by Hogwarts Legacy and Baldur’s Gate 3.
Despite all the predictions, Bethesda’s new IP, Starfield, did very well the year it was released. With all the hype leading up to the game’s launch fueled by its exclusivity on Xbox and PC, this isn’t a huge surprise.
Upon release, Starfield received positive reviews from experts, and while many fans enjoyed the game, many also considered it a missed opportunity. Space travel was seen as a crushing disappointment, and explorable planets did not seem worth finding.
However, in hindsight, it turns out that Starfield was one of the top three best-selling games on Steam in terms of revenue. Bethesda’s game has grossed more than $235 million since its launch in September.
Bethesda has promised that there is more to come for Starfield in 2024. The big news is official mod support for the game via Creation Club 2.0, which promises to be a significant upgrade over what was featured in Skyrim and Fallout 4/76.
A story expansion is also planned, which promises to add characters to interact with, new locations to explore, and hopefully new modes of transportation, since traversing planets on foot can get a little boring.
Starfield is currently available on Xbox Series X/S and PC. Stay tuned for more updates on this epic sci-fi game!
