Bethesda’s sci-fi RPG, Starfield, has been an Xbox and PC exclusive since its launch. However, recent developments suggest that a PlayStation 5 release may be on the horizon. The latest Creations update has sparked speculation that an official announcement could be imminent.
Starfield Creations Update: A Possible Clue?
The newly released Starfield Creations update introduces a variety of content, but what’s grabbing attention is a hidden reference to potential cross-platform availability. Dataminers have reportedly uncovered files that hint at PS5-related optimizations. This discovery has led many to believe that Bethesda and Microsoft might be preparing for a major platform expansion.
They have added the Playstation logo to a creation. (I think they are beta testers, the logo only appears on one creation)

Microsoft’s Multi-Platform Strategy
Microsoft has been making moves to bring some of its exclusives to other platforms. With recent rumors about Hi-Fi Rush and Sea of Thieves heading to PlayStation and Switch, it wouldn’t be surprising if Starfield follows suit. Given Starfield’s massive scale and continued updates, expanding to PS5 could be a strategic move to maximize its reach.
When Can We Expect an Announcement?
While nothing has been officially confirmed, industry insiders suggest that an announcement could come in the next few months. Events like Summer Game Fest or a dedicated Xbox showcase could be the perfect stage for Bethesda to reveal Starfield’s arrival on PS5.
For now, fans will have to wait and see if these hints materialize into a full-fledged PS5 release. Would you play Starfield on PlayStation 5? Let us know in the comments!
