How to Holster Your Weapon in Starfield
Holstering your weapon is simple in Starfield, but for some reason, the game doesn’t tell you how to do it at any point. All you need to do is hold the R key on PC or hold the X button on Xbox. This will lower your weapon and put it away out of sight, giving you more of the screen to see without anything in your way.
If you need to bring it back up for a gunfight or just want to look at your weapons and admire their design, tap the shoot or reload button or press R, and you will bring your weapon back up, ready for use.
Why Holster Your Weapon
The only reason to holster your weapon is for the slight increase in speed when walking, running, or sprinting. Other than that, it’s purely a personal preference whether you want your weapon at the ready at all times. Of course, you could accidentally shoot or attack someone if you misclick, but if you like to live dangerously, then have at it.
There is no need to worry about NPCs either, as they will not react to your weapon drawn. You can even put the barrel of a shotgun to their face and they would still smile like nothing is happening.
