You probably shouldn’t bet on a Starfield sequel if news coming out of Xbox’s reset is anything to go by.<\/p>\n
According to a new report from Bloomberg, Microsoft’s restructuring of Xbox will see Bethesda focusing on a handful of franchises going forward: Fallout, The Elder Scrolls, Wolfenstein, Doom, and Quake. These five franchises are expected to be a priority, with at least three of them already having games in development. There have been rumblings that another team like Obsidian could be set to work on a Fallout game, as Bethesda has its hands tied up with The Elder Scrolls 6, but nothing has been confirmed.<\/p>\n
However, many were quick to point out that Starfield is seemingly absent from Bethesda’s priority list. The sci-fi game debuted back in 2023 after an extended development and was a passion project for Bethesda boss Todd Howard. Unfortunately, Starfield largely failed to meet fan expectations, and subsequent updates and expansions haven’t really moved the needle on that sentiment. Still, some of the game’s more hardcore fans had hoped that Starfield would go on to at least get more expansions, and maybe even a sequel, establishing itself as Bethesda’s third franchise. Those hopes may have been dashed.<\/p>\n
