Starfield Had The Biggest Launch Ever For A Bethesda Game
Starfield is finally out for everyone after an early access launch on September 1 with a premium price tag (or Xbox Game Pass upgrade) and on September 6 for everyone else. Starfield has already become Bethesda Game Studios’ biggest launch ever, beating previous releases like Fallout 76, Fallout 4, and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
That’s thanks to 6 million Starfield players who had began their journey in space by 6 p.m. ET on September 7, which is when the official Starfield Twitter account tweeted that the game had become the company’s biggest launch.
