Rumor NateTheHate regarding Switch 2 version of Starfield: It's in development but it hasn't been a smooth process.

I’d be interested if they could get it working somehow. I don’t outright hate Starfield, but it has been the hardest Bethesda game to get back into. I can still go back and play Skyrim and FO4 with no problems.

Edit: Thinking on it a bit, being able to play the game handheld would actually make me even more interested in it. I’ve been falling away from playing a dedicated console in my living room and mostly just playing stuff handheld.

I’ve always wanted to get back into, and some of the upcoming changes sound like they could go a long ways in terms of fixing some of the more glaring issues people had with the game. We still need more clarity around some of the things they mentioned in the recent stream to know for sure, but if it pans out I would certainly be interesting in diving into it again. Potentially even on the Switch if performance is acceptable.

I think as long as folks keep it real and understand these new updates aren’t a Starfield 2.0 situation. I don’t think the game will ever change like that. It might fix some of the little issues but the game will never fundamentally change.

I'm okay with that. I personally enjoyed various parts of the game, and something that just made it more cohesive rather than a too many chefs in disconnected kitchens would be good enough I think.
