Starfield fan theory points to a March 2023 release date
A Starfield fan theory suggests the game will be released in March next year.
Originally scheduled to launch on November 11, 2022, Bethesda delayed Starfield until the first half of 2023 to give us "the best, most polished version" of its incredibly ambitious sci-fi RPG.
