Is Starfield coming out in a few months or later this year? Is Microsoft thinking about delaying arguably its biggest game in forever that isn't Halo and Forza by a year? We've all got plenty of questions about Starfield and the recent rumors aren't helping at all. But, while most of the info we've gotten about Starfield indicates that it's going to be delayed, they're mostly just hearsay - from trusted sources but still unverified.
However, the latest leak is different, as it's a photo of new packaging for the Xbox Series X with Starfield plastered all over it.
On one hand, it makes sense for Microsoft to put their most anticipated game on the box their flagship console instead of Halo Infinite and Forza Horizon 5, both of which came out two years ago. Also, this isn't the first time that Microsoft has put a game on the box of their console way ahead of its release. Case in point, Halo Infinite was the predominant artwork for the Xbox Series X packaging when it first came out.
On the other hand, even though we risk sounding like a broken transponder, it feels like we're overdue more Starfield news.
