Given the latest happenings on the rumor mill, the next downloadable content (DLC) of the much awaited game “Starfield” is indeed true. Note that Bethesda, Microsoft or Xbox have made no such announcements. There have been no indications of new playable content being brought into the game. This absence of public dialogue has given way to rampant speculation and concern among fans and industry insiders.
Influential leaker NateTheHate sparked a fiery conversation on ResetEra’s gaming forum. He recently shared that the first DLC for “Starfield” wouldn’t be coming until 2024. His comments suggest that even now expansion is still being figured out. Fellow players, get ready for complete radio silence in 2025. Our own Jez Corden had some good things to say about Fallout 5. Now indeed are things formal, as Steven confirmed that the game has been officially greenlit for development. Needless to say, this news has franchise fans especially pumped! It signals a broader truth — that Bethesda, like many studios, is working on a number of different projects.
At this point, Bethesda is NOT just working on “Starfield’s” next expansion, but the long-awaited “Elder Scrolls VI.” The studio especially seems to be playing a game of hot potato with three big releases at once, further complicating and causing delays for each game’s respective release. According to leaked reports, the first expansion for “Starfield” is now set to release by early 2026. It’s a long time to wait for fans who are quite rightly champing at the bit for more.
Even with all this progress, neither NateTheHate, nor Jez Corden have given definitive release windows for the soon to be launched “Starfield” DLC. The lack of an official schedule only deepens the murkiness about when players can expect to find new content. The DLC thus far has been unfortunately devoid of delays. That’s an encouraging sign that, even if it doesn’t get released this year, it remains on track to continue growing and expanding its applicability.
Bethesda, meanwhile, hasn’t set a release date for the next “Starfield” DLC. This lack of info is leading to rampant speculation among fans. Similarly, Microsoft and Xbox have maintained silence on new content for the game, leaving players in the dark about what to expect moving forward. The current debates within the gaming community highlight the excitement that’s building not just for “Starfield,” but for Bethesda’s other long-awaited new releases.
