Starfield Fans Await News as Insider Rumors Point to Upcoming Showcase Event from Microsoft and Bethesda

New Starfield Details May Be on the Horizon as Multiple Industry Insiders Hint at Imminent Showcase Event.

Rumors have been circulating that Microsoft and Bethesda may be planning a Developer Direct livestream for Starfield, their upcoming science fiction first-person shooter RPG. The game was officially announced at E3 2018 and is set in the 2330s, where players take on the role of a space explorer from an organization called Constellation. Starfield is described as “Skyrim in space,” and features both ground and space combat. Players can customize their ships, establish colonies, and explore over 1000 planets. Bethesda plans to release Starfield sometime in the first half of 2023.

According to multiple insider sources, a Starfield showcase is imminent, with some claiming that Microsoft and Bethesda will announce the event next week. This news was initially tweeted by Video Games Chronicle’s Editor-in-Chief Andy Robinson and was later corroborated by YouTuber Rand Al Thor 19 and Windows Central Editor Jez Corden on their latest Xbox Two podcast.


While the insiders did not provide any additional information about the announcement, they did state that they had heard rumors since before The Game Awards that Bethesda would hold a Starfield showcase in March or April 2023. With multiple sources consistently telling the same story for so long, these rumors hold more credibility than they would otherwise.

However, the insiders were careful not to state that the rumors were facts, given how fluid Bethesda’s plans for Starfield seem to be. While the game is set to release in the first half of this year, there has been conflicting information on the timing of its release, with some reports claiming it has been delayed to later in the summer, while others claim it is targeting a June release. Bethesda has said that a release date will be announced in the near future.

Fans are eagerly awaiting official details on Starfield, and any leaks related to the game are quickly picked up and shared. However, some leaks turn out to be fake, such as a recently leaked image that was claimed to be a still taken from a cinematic trailer for the game. It turned out to be an AI-generated fake created through Midjourney, with minor edits to make it appear like an off-screen still taken from a trailer.

While fans await official news, the rumors of a Starfield showcase from multiple credible sources have them excited for what could be coming soon.
