A PlayStation 5 version of Starfield will not receive an announcement in 2025, according to industry insider NatetheHate. The source indicated on Wednesday that Microsoft plans to reveal the port in 2026, but cautioned that plans could change. Reports suggest Bethesda began development work on the console adaptation shortly after the space exploration game launched in 2023.
The delayed release may allow the studio to address core gameplay problems through updates, and could coincide with a second expansion that introduces revised space mechanics. Free content additions have failed to resolve fundamental issues with the role-playing game. PlayStation users may benefit from the extended development timeline by accessing a more polished product when it arrives on Sony hardware.
