Starfield will get official DLSS support in an upcoming update

"Even if we don't get to your requests immediately, we'd love to do it in the future, like city maps. Our priority initially is making sure any top blocker bugs or stability issues are addressed, and adding quality-of-life features that many are asking for."

Bethesda also announced that it is working with Nvidia, AMD, and Intel on driver support. According to the studio, each update will add new stability and performance improvements. This should come as a big relief for players whose enjoyment of Starfield has been hampered by low framerates and other performance issues.

Getting official DLSS support will be huge for Starfield given that a majority of PC users, especially on Steam, use Nvidia GPUs. The mods showcased what DLSS can do for the game and having it natively supported would improve the use of the upscaling technology even more. Nvidia engineers will surely work to optimize the use of the technology and extract every last bit of performance from DLSS.

Bethesda also shared that it hasstarted working on adding built-in mod support on all platforms similar to Skyrim and Fallout 4, with plans to roll out early next year. With the game being supported for years to come, it will be interesting what the modding community comes up with that will be officially added to the game.

"Modding and creating in our games will always be a vital and important part of who we are, and we love seeing the community get off to such a strong start," Bethesda said.

Starfield is currently available on PC and Xbox Series X|S.
