Bethesda has a long and storied history in the RPG sphere, with experience making games for over two decades. Therefore, a lot of eyes within the gaming community are on Bethesda's upcoming space exploration RPG, Starfield. First announced during Bethesda's E3 Press Conference in 2018, Starfield has garnered a lot of interest over the course of its long development cycle. The studio's hopes are all pinned on a successful launch, as despite a reputation of creating some of the most impressive and fan-friendly games in the business, Bethesda has had some misfires in recent years. With a hit on its hands, Bethesda will be well on the way to restoring some of its previous standing in the video game community.
In the years since its announcement, Bethesda has chosen to reveal only brief glimpses of its upcoming game, teasing players with information about Starfield without providing too many details. This approach has certainly worked to raise expectations and generate hype, but like the recently revealed Star Wars Eclipse, Bethesda may have shown its hand too early and traded in some of the player excitement the game could have garnered in order to announce it sooner rather than later. However, now that the launch date is approaching, the developers have opened the lid just a crack to give players a better look at Starfield, and it seems like the game may have some startling similarities to titles from another behemoth in the RPG field – BioWare.
