The gaming community is buzzing with excitement as Bethesda, known for its rich open-world RPGs, prepares to release its latest interplanetary journey, Starfield. Known for creating expansive and intricate worlds, Bethesda is taking a bold step into unknown territory by bringing its trademark storytelling prowess to the universe.

As Bethesda’s first new intellectual property in almost two decades, Starfield exemplifies the studio’s commitment to developing original content. The game’s premise is based on the space exploration into the future, and it gives players the chance to assume the role of intergalactic explorers of the Constellation faction, in a carefully constructed sci-fi setting.

Fans have been able to purchase Starfield Xbox controllers and console wraps for several months prior to the game’s official release. Similarly, Bethesda released a Starfield Dynamic Background for Xbox Series X/S users just one day prior to the launch of early access. Here’s how you can get it.
