starfield update

Ever since Starfield was released in September last year, players had been complaining about there not being a major update. It looks like the developers heard them because the latest Starfield update, version 1.11.36, is said to be the biggest to date!

With the update boasting a wide array of new features, performance enhancements, and increased stability for both PC and Xbox, your Starfield experience will certainly go up a few notches.

Developers have made significant improvements to the Xbox Series X’s display settings, allowing players to customize their experience for the best gameplay. And initial reviews coming in suggest that these do improve things!

Here are the highlights of the latest Starfield update, 1.11.36:

– Improved surface maps – We’ve heard your feedback, and we’ve made some big improvements to surface maps, so you’ll always know just where to go and no longer “get lost” on the way to your parents’ place (and they weren’t buying that excuse anyway, you should really go visit them).

– New gameplay options – For those of you who like a bit of an extra challenge or want to make some aspects of the game easier, you can customize your experience with brand new options in the Settings menu. Want to make ground combat harder but ship combat easier? You can do just that!

– Added Ship Decoration mode to the interior of Ships – now you can decorate your ships just like you can with Outposts!

– Added Tabs to Container menus to make managing your inventory easier.

– Added the ability to change Traits and appearance after entering the Unity.

– Added Dialogue camera toggle in the Settings.

– Added Display settings for Xbox Series X to prioritize Visuals or Performance, adjust Frame Rate Target, and toggle VSync (Series X).

For the complete list of improvements, visit Bethesda’s official blog post.

With the latest update, Bethesda has managed to boost optimism amongst players that future Starfield updates will be more aligned with their needs, i.e., deliver more optimized gameplay. This was important, considering it took developers over a decade to launch Starfield.

For the unversed, there are speculations that Starfield is coming to PlayStation later this year!
