Those who own the Premium or Constellation Editions of Starfield receive Shattered Space at no additional cost. Although the DLC’s starting mission will become available after the base game’s introductory mission, One Small Step, is completed, Bethesda recommends players wait until they reach level 35 “for the best experience.” The developer also boasted about the many changes and tweaks it’s brought to the experience since launch, suggesting that with Shattered Space at the door, there’s never been a better time to jump into Starfield. Some of the additions added since the base game released last year include its Rev-8 vehicle as well as a number of gameplay and visual enhancements.

Starfield introduced PC and Xbox players to Bethesda’s new space RPG universe last September. Although we felt it had a few issues holding it back from true greatness, we still enjoyed our time with the sci-fi story it told. In our 7/10 review, we said, “Starfield has a lot of forces working against it, but eventually the allure of its expansive roleplaying quests and respectable combat make its gravitational pull difficult to resist.”
