You can start playing Starfield right now if you have an Xbox Series X|S or a PC, as it was officially released on September 6, 2023. Additionally, there was an Early Access period that began on August 31, 2023, for those who pre- ordered the Premium or Constellation editions or upgraded through Xbox Game Pass. However, if asking about playing Starfield on PlayStation 5, that version is not yet available and is reportedly set for release in spring 2026, alongside a new expansion and updates. In summary:
- Starfield on Xbox Series X|S and PC: Available since September 6, 2023 (Early Access started August 31, 2023).
- Starfield on PlayStation 5: Expected release in spring 2026.
This means Starfield can be played now on Xbox and PC, but PS5 players will need to wait until 2026.
