Despite its futuristic setting, Starfield lets players experience a touch of history with Old Earth weapons, adding a unique flavor to your space adventures. Here’s exactly how you can find these classic firearms.

Starfield is a full-fledged science fiction game where you can use futuristic weapons and travel across space at breakneck speed. In such an era, using anything from an age gone by might not feel as appealing.

As it happens, some players do enjoy the nostalgia and nothing can beat the feel of a classic pump action shotgun or the AK-47. In such a case you can pick up some Old Earth weapons which will bring back the taste of home.

Here’s a guide on how to find these weapons in Starfield.
