Alright, here goes. So, Bethesda, right? They’ve been playing this weird secret game with us about Starfield ever since they dropped that first DLC back in September 2024. I mean, what’s up with that? Before the Shattered Space DLC came out, there was all this buzz about yearly expansions. But now? Zilch. Nada. The silence is making some folks twitchy about what’s next for this space RPG.
People had their hopes up for Starfield, and yeah, it has its moments, but let’s be real — it didn’t quite hit the same highs as the oldies but goodies. And Shattered Space… eh, people were like, “meh.” So now everyone’s wondering how Bethesda’s gonna jazz things up for the next DLC. Some folks thought we’d hear something at the Xbox Games Showcase, but nope. Nada. Now that they’ve said they’re gonna be at Gamescom, August 19 might just bring the Starfield info dump we’ve been craving. Fingers crossed, right?
Oh, but wait till you hear this. Gamescom kicks off August 20-24, sure, but August 19 is this big whoop-de-doo called Opening Night Live. Talk about setting the stage! And the buzz around Starfield has been growing like mold on forgotten cheese. Bethesda being in the lineup has everyone guessing about what’s coming.
If—big if here—Starfield shows up at Gamescom, people are hoping for two biggies: the next DLC’s name and drop date, and whether a PS5 port will finally crawl out of the shadows. Bethesda initially said they were planning yearly expansions. Well, time’s ticking, and Gamescom is the perfect show to spill those beans. It’s one of the big kahunas in the gaming world, so not hearing anything would be like going to a rock concert with earplugs.
Bethesda’s Twitter game hasn’t been anywhere near helpful. Imagine getting hyped for a red balloon, and you get a picture of an air pump. But, there’s a chance this silence means they’re working on something big. Or it might be the end for Starfield if those rumors of Bethesda slowing down hold any water.
Oh, and Fallout 3, anyone? Remaster chatter has been shaking trees. Fans have also been clamoring for updates on The Elder Scrolls 6 since… 2018? Yikes, talk about a long wait!
So, could Starfield’s next DLC be the swan song? Speculation hats on, folks! If Gamescom rolls around and Bethesda finally tosses us a bone, it could be their last hurrah. But who’s to say? Shattered Space didn’t exactly wow everyone, but that just means the next expansion can only go up, right? Here’s hoping they pull a rabbit out of the hat and end things on a high.
Now as Gamescom inches closer, maybe we’ll finally get some clarity. Bethesda’s keeping mum might be nerve-wracking, but maybe—just maybe—it signals they’re working their butts off to make the next DLC worth it. No guarantees, though. So, circle August 19 on your calendar and get ready for what could be the pivotal moment for this whole Starfield thing. Who knows, it might flip the sci-fi RPG world on its head. Or not. We’ll see.
