Starfield
Games That Will Probably be Delayed in 2022
Starfield’s a really interesting game to follow, purely because it’s the first brand-new IP from Bethesda Game Studios (BGS) in over 30 years. With this comes a lot of expectations for the Fallout and Elder Scrolls developer, whose lofty ambitions are taking its RPG pedigree to the moon… and space in general with Starfield.
We don’t know a whole lot else about the game, but we do know it’s set to be on the scale of — or larger than — Skyrim, at least in terms of lines of dialog.
If you’ve played a BGS game around release, you’ll know the titles often have some humorous bugs and glitches. These kinds of games are an absolute QA nightmare, given the freedom players have to do whatever they want, interact with whatever items, and complete things in more or less whatever order they see fit.
It’s the combination of all of these things that make Starfield a prime candidate for a delay in 2022. Currently slated, for Nov. 11, we could see the game getting pushed into the early months of 2023 in order to give the team a bit more time to properly polish up the experience and to deliver on fans’ expectations.
We’ve still not seen proper gameplay of Starfield, either, though there’s definitely still time, especially with ‘announcement’ or E3 season coming up in June.
