\"Starfield<\/a><\/p>\n

It looks like Starfield\u2019s<\/a> long rumoured PS5 port<\/a> will finally be announced in 2026, as speculation suggests Bethesda recently held some kind of event for content creators to outline upcoming expansions and improvements.<\/p>\n

The game, as many of you will know, was announced for Sony\u2019s system eons ago<\/a>. But when Microsoft bought its publisher, the PlayStation version was promptly cancelled<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There had been rumours that the Japanese giant had been sniffing around the title<\/a> and had explored the possibility of timed exclusivity, but any prospect of that was promptly snuffed out by its Redmond rival\u2019s deep pockets.<\/p>\n

Starfield, ultimately, didn\u2019t live up to expectations \u2013 and in the wake of floundering hardware sales, Xbox is now porting the vast majority of its first-party franchises to the PS5, including Halo<\/a> and Gears of War<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And, has been speculated for a while now, it sounds like Starfield will be next.<\/p>\n

One persistent rumour has revolved around the idea that Bethesda plans to release the port alongside a major update for the game<\/a>, which it\u2019s supposedly been showing behind closed doors this week<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s some inconsistency over the scale of this update \u2013 some have described it as a Cyberpunk 2077<\/a>-style moment for the sci-fi adventure, while others have said to temper expectations \u2013 but it sounds like improvements will be made to the game\u2019s many loading screens and structure.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, if Bethesda is showing this content behind-the-scenes already, we should expect some kind of announcement in January at the latest.<\/p>\n

Xbox has already confirmed a Developer Direct<\/a> for the new year, so we wouldn\u2019t be surprised if it announced any upcoming Starfield news there.<\/p>\n
