Starfield will be the biggest game that Bethesda has ever made. The upcoming space adventure RPG will offer players an expansive universe with over 1,000 worlds that players can explore and even colonize.
During the recently concluded Starfield Direct, Todd Howard and the Starfield team talked about the endless adventures that players can have in the universe. It will not just be massive but it will also be teeming with life.
"This time it's not just one world, it's over 1,000 worlds," Howard said. "We realistically simulate the galaxy around you."
The development team explained how each planet was made during the deep dive. The terrain, atmosphere, and resources of each planet are procedurally generated but will feature several handcrafted locations. These locations can be anything from abandoned outposts, mining facilities filled with loot, enemy bases, or even large cities like New Atlantis.
Gravity will be different on each planet which will affect the way players engage in combat. There will also be areas with zero gravity which can throw off players especially when carrying projectile-based weapons as these will push you in the opposite direction.
