Rumor Points to Starfield's PS5 Debut in Spring 2026
A new rumor is circulating that Bethesda's expansive space RPG, Starfield, could finally make its way to PlayStation 5. According to sources cited by MP1st, the highly anticipated console release for Sony's platform is reportedly being eyed for Spring 2026. This comes with the important caveat that, as with all rumors, plans can change, and players should take this information with a grain of salt until official confirmation.
Starfield has been a console exclusive for Xbox Series X/S and is also available on PC via Steam since its launch. PlayStation players have been eagerly awaiting any news on a potential port, especially given Microsoft's recent strategy of bringing some of its exclusive titles to other platforms.
Potential Release Window and New Content
The report suggests that Starfield's PS5 launch in Spring 2026 would coincide with the release of its second major expansion. Interestingly, the delay in bringing the game to PlayStation is partially attributed to the reportedly underwhelming sales of its first expansion, 'Shattered Space.'
Alongside the rumored PS5 release and the second expansion, players can also look forward to several quality-of-life improvements for the game. This could mean a more polished and enhanced experience for all players, regardless of their platform. However, fans eager for an immediate announcement shouldn't hold their breath for Gamescom Opening Night Live on August 19th, as sources indicate an official reveal is not expected there.
What This Means for Players
For PlayStation 5 owners, this rumor, if true, means a longer wait for Starfield. However, it could also mean that when the game does arrive, it will be a more complete and refined experience, potentially featuring both major DLCs and significant gameplay enhancements right from launch. For existing PC and and Xbox players, the prospect of a second expansion and universal quality-of-life updates is certainly good news, promising continued support and fresh content for the universe of Starfield.
