Xbox’s latest exclusive, Starfield, has taken the gaming world by storm, amassing an impressive 10 million players in a short span. This space exploration RPG, developed by Bethesda Game Studios, has not only captured the imagination of gamers but has also set new benchmarks for the franchise.
In a recent update shared on Starfield’s official Twitter account, Xbox celebrated the game’s milestone of surpassing 10 million players. This achievement is particularly noteworthy given that Starfield is available exclusively on Xbox consoles and PC. The game’s inclusion in the Xbox Game Pass from day one has likely contributed to this surge in player count, offering subscribers immediate access to one of the year’s most anticipated titles.
The success of Starfield is a testament to Bethesda’s prowess in crafting immersive gaming experiences. Released on September 6th, Starfield’s rapid ascent to 10 million players marks it as Bethesda’s most successful launch to date.
The game’s expansive universe, rich with diverse planets and intricate narratives, offers players a unique blend of exploration and storytelling. As players traverse this vast cosmos, they encounter a myriad of challenges, from crafting intricate ship designs to engaging in interstellar diplomacy.
Starfield’s release has sparked discussions about its potential influence on Xbox console sales. Historically, the Xbox Series X|S has faced stiff competition from rivals like the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5. However, with a blockbuster exclusive like Starfield in its arsenal, Xbox might witness a surge in console sales.
Anticipating this, Microsoft made strategic moves leading up to the game’s launch, including the introduction of a revamped Xbox Series S model with enhanced storage – a crucial feature given the storage demands of modern exclusives.
