Starfield’s story expansion Shattered Space gets a trailer, but no release date yet

The first trailer for Starfield‘s Shattered Space expansion has been released.

Shattered Space, which is the game’s first big story expansion DLC, will be released later this year, but still doesn’t have a release date.

“Deep in the dark reaches of space, the followers of the Great Serpent live shrouded in mystery,” Xbox‘s description of the expansion reads.

“Begin an epic new story and explore House Va’ruun territory in Shattered Space, Starfield’s first major expansion.”

Later today, however, the game will be receiving its June update, which includesg “new locations, new gear, new bounties, plus new custom content from Bethesda Game Studios and Community Creators”.

According to Xbox, “Official mod support with the launch of Creations, the first new quest DLC with the introduction of Trackers Alliance, new bounty hunting features, and improvements to melee weapons are the highlights of Starfield’s June Update.”

The Shattered Space expansion was announced ahead of Starfield’s release last September and is included with the game’s more expensive editions.

Players who own the Premium Edition or Constellation Edition of the game will get Shattered Space at no extra cost. For everyone else, however – including those playing the game on Xbox Game Pass – Shattered Space will be a paid expansion.

Last month Starfield got another major update, which included detailed surface maps, an updated Performance mode on Xbox Series X that targets 60 fps, and a new Extreme difficulty option.

Last year Starfield director Todd Howard said the game was intentionally made to be played for a long time.

Two weeks after its release, its publisher claimed the sci-fi RPG had reached 10 million players, making it “the biggest launch in Bethesda history”.
