Starfield was first unveiled publicly during Bethesda’s E3 Press Conference in 2018. The game was advertised as a “whole new, next-generation experience” set in a “completely new space-themed universe.” It will be Bethesda’s first new intellectual property in more than twenty-five years. The game is set to arrive on Microsoft Windows and Xbox Series X/S.
The Settled Systems, which spreads outward from the Solar System for around 50 light-years, is where Starfield is situated. Around the year 2310, the game’s two most powerful factions, the United Colonies and the Freestar Collective, fought a deadly Colony War. The game takes place 20 years after the Colony War, with the major groups living under an uneasy truce. The user will control a customizable character who is a member of Constellation, a space exploration organisation. The game may be played in first-person or third-person mode.
Redfall is an upcoming first-person shooter video game by Arkane Studios and Bethesda Softworks. The game will arrive on Microsoft Windows and Xbox Series X/S. The game is set on the namesake Massachusetts island hamlet of Redfall. A legion of vampires attacked and secluded the town from the outside world after a disastrous scientific experiment. Players must pick between four survivors — cryptozoologist and inventor Devinder Crousley, telekinetic student Layla Ellison, combat engineer Remi de la Rosa, and supernatural sniper Jacob Boyer — and murder their adversaries, vampires and humans alike, while trapped inside Redfall.
