Starfield is living up to its premise as players are still discovering new places to explore after hundreds of hours of gameplay.

Bethesda is no stranger to massive open worlds but cramming an entire galaxy into Starfield has made it their biggest yet. The space-fairing RPG is jam-packed with things to do from building beautiful outposts to engineering insane spacecraft.

Even six months after the game’s release, Starfield players are still unearthing new things in its sprawling galaxy. It’s not just new players jumping in after the most recent update either.

Reddit user u/Constellation_XI has amassed more than 850 hours in Starfield and they were shocked to discover a new location in the game recently. It looks like it’s a first for others too.

The location in question is the Trade Authority Space Station that orbits around the planet Prax. Similar to most of Starfield’s space stations, it’s a massive interior space with multiple levels and NPCs and even has its own self-contained story.

The coolest part about this particular space station is that you can explore it in zero gravity. If you’re brave enough, you can even aggro the spacers inside for some mid-air combat.

“It constantly amazes me the number of things in this game that I’ve yet to stumble over,” responded one explorer who hadn’t docked on this particular space station. “Didn’t know this existed, replied another. “I guess I know where to go for next playthrough once the next DLC drops.”

Other players who are seasoned travelers of the stars took time to praise Starfield’s space stations for being particularly engaging locations. “There needs to be way more space stations. They are some of the coolest locations in the game,” one user said.

For those of you on PC who do want more space stations in Starfield, there’s a mod where you can build your own.

It was apparently built using an unfinished feature that was scrapped from the game prior to launch. Given the files are still present in the game, we could see its official addition to Starfield down the line.
