"We have some cool stuff coming, including free updates and features that players have been asking for, as well as a new DLC story," said Lab. "I can't go into all the details just yet, but I will say part of the team has been focused on space gameplay to make the travels there more rewarding. We're also adding some new game systems, and a few other smaller delights."
If there was one thing was missing at launch, it was more immersive space travel. While not every game needs the seamless intergalactic flights of No Man's Sky, relegating something as grandiose as exploring the stars to a series of menus was something that constantly undermined Starfield's pacing. Visiting a planet in a different part of the galaxy, for instance, required several menus and clicks with multiple loading screens for before you set foot on the ground.
