Starfield’s Shattered Space DLC may be coming soon – will you play it?

Following its promises of substantial updates and improvements coming to Starfield in 2024, Bethesda has overall been suspiciously quiet on this front. The promised updates are, indeed, dropping in, but there’s been absolutely no news about the announced Shattered Space DLC. Until now, that is.

As it currently stands, virtually nothing is known about Starfield: Shattered Space, short of the fact that it’s supposed to be coming… eventually.
