Shortly after Starfield's launch, Xbox boss Phil Spencer expressed his belief that it will become a 12-year game, just like Skyrim. Now, one year after its launch, Starfield's creative producer Tim Lamb says he "hopes" this is still possible, as the team has plenty of ideas for updates.
This comes from our chat with Lamb at Gamescom this year, where the developer reflects on Starfield's journey since its launch last September. He also looks ahead to the game's future - which Lamb hopes will span a full decade, much like Bethesda's other RPGs.
“I hope so”, says Lamb, when asked if Starfield could last as long as Skyrim. “We do plan to support our games for a long time. So we always have ideas going around in various levels of completeness, but we're always working on something.”
Lamb didn't share much about what these updates will entail, but he is hopeful about the future, regardless. “We want to continue to support the game for a long time, and I hope that we're able to bring as much joy as I feel like I'm seeing with Shattered Space and the REV-8."
Whether Obsidian or another studio entirely, Starfield deserves...
