Well, friends, we are just over a week away from the early access launch of Starfield and spoilers have begun leaking, including the opening 40 minutes of the game from someone who got a copy early.
IGN won’t be sharing any of the spoilers, but we wanted to warn all of you to be careful on social media (block appropriate hashtags, keywords, etc.), YouTube, and beyond. The first new Bethesda universe in over 25 years is almost here, and we hope it isn’t ruined for any who wish to journey through it.
Bethesda has already fallen victim to a number of Starfield leaks perpetrated by bad actors, who have either foolishly breached their non-disclosure agreements, or, as is the case here, have taken advantage of being sent the game ahead of release.
While it’s not necessarily a spoiler of the game itself, Starfield’s start screen has leaked and was criticized by a former Blizzard employee, which prompted Bethesda head of publishing Pete Hines to issue a sharply worded rebuke.
Be sure to check out IGN’s review of Starfield when the embargo lifts at 9 A.M. Pacific Time on August 31, ahead of the game’s early access release on September 1 for players who have purchased the Premium Edition, Premium Upgrade, or Constellation Editions of the game. Starfield will be getting its full release on September 6, as a day one Game Pass title.
