Starfield’s Shattered Space expansion gets a 9-minute deep dive video
The game’s first major DLC launches in late September
Bethesda has released an in-depth video preview of Starfield’s first expansion, Shattered Space.
Viewable below, the deep dive video offers “the first look at the mysterious homeworld of House Va’ruun”, according to lead creative producer Tim Lamb.
Shattered Space will be released for Xbox Series X/S and PC on September 30. It’s included with the Premium and Constellation Editions of Starfield, or available to purchase separately for $29.99 / £29.99.
“A mysterious power stirs in the city of Dazra on House Va’Ruun’s hidden homeworld,” reads an official description of the DLC. “Investigate a frightening cosmic threat, explore a new planet, and find unique weapons, spacesuits, and gear in this all-new adventure.
“When a distress signal from a derelict starstation sparks a journey to Va’Ruun’kai, the veil of secrecy surrounding the worshippers of a deity known as ‘The Great Serpent’ is finally lifted.
“Immerse yourself in the dark and complex world of House Va’Ruun, as you navigate a tense political landscape, uncover the history of the Va’Ruun people and help decide the fate of the faction in the wake of a cataclysmic event.”
In terms of scope, Starfield game director Todd Howard has likened Shattered Space to Fallout 4’s Far Harbor expansion.
Howard has also said he hopes to release Starfield story expansions on an annual basis.
