Two months after Bethesda confirmed ongoing work on new content for Starfield, a recent Steam beta update has been rolled out that disappointingly lacks new gameplay features but introduces a ‘Very Low’ display setting and various bug fixes.

Many players are relieved to see that the game is still receiving updates, though some are frustrated by the lengthy six-month wait since the last update. The new graphics option should assist users whose systems struggle with higher settings, although not all players are thrilled about dropping to the lowest visual fidelity.

Features of the Update

• Added a Very Low display setting to enhance performance.
• Expanded capabilities in the Creation Kit, allowing inclusion of new icons in-game.
• The Creations Store now permits bundling of Creations.
• Increased upload capacity for creations to 2GB.

Bug Fixes

• Resolved load order errors with multiple mods.
• Various crashes, control locks, and stability issues have been addressed.

Community Reactions

While some gamers appreciate the continued support, others express disappointment on forums, suggesting that after many months, more substantial content should have been introduced. Bethesda has teased future modding content, hinting at significant updates coming from external creators, such as the upcoming Watchtower mod, developed by a renowned modder.
