Numerous gaming insiders believe that Starfield incurred a budget for Bethesda that likely exceeded the $200 million mark. While the exact amount might forever remain a mystery, we can all agree that this endeavor didn't come cheap, especially considering the recent revelation about the origin of the official theme song for the space RPG.
Bethesda Softworks has joined forces with the American pop rock band Imagine Dragons to create the official track for Starfield, Children of the Sky (a Starfield song), which is available on YouTube, Spotify, and all other major streaming platforms.
This tune plays like a homage dedicated to the tireless efforts of the Bethesda team, who poured countless hours into shaping the expansive open-world game. Moreover, it resonates as a tribute to the legion of fans who stood by the studio's side throughout the decade-long journey of developing the highly anticipated game.
Here is a sample of the lyrics from the chorus: We're Children of the Sky Flying up so high Let me be that one To find the brightest sun We're Children of the Sky Guided by the light Let me reach new heights Stars amongst the night We're Children of the Sky Imagine Dragons are apparently big fans of Bethesda titles, as revealed by the band's lead vocalist, Dan Reynolds, who spoke about the song, saying: "The song, like the game, asks some of the most difficult questions we face as humans trying to find our place in the universe. Bethesda created iconic games we've been playing for most of our lives, and we're honored to have collaborated on this song for Starfield.
