Bethesda has released Update 1.16.236 for Starfield, aka the Free Lanes update. Starfield was first released in 2023 on PC and Xbox Series X/S, giving fans the chance to experience an open world Bethesda adventure in the massive expanse of space. Starfield enjoyed strong reviews and sales, but it hasn't had the staying power of other Bethesda games like Skyrim and Fallout 4. Still, that hasn't stopped Bethesda from regularly updating the game and releasing substantial new content for it over time.
About a year after Starfield launched, Bethesda released the Shattered Space DLC for the game, giving players new characters to interact with and places to explore. Shattered Space received mixed reviews, but that didn't deter Bethesda. Bethesda has been working hard on a second Starfield paid expansion coinciding with a brand-new Free Lanes update, with both out now.
In the wake of its long-awaited PlayStation 5 announcement, Bethesda's Starfield faces further rumors of a release on another platform.
The new Starfield Free Lanes update is available to download right now. The big new feature is the ability to travel in open space instead of simply warping from place to place like how space travel has worked...
