Starfield has become Bethesda's biggest project since the studio's founding

American publisher Bethesda made a statement that the recently released global space game Starfield became the studio's largest project since its founding. According to results from September 7, the new role-playing game has already been played by more than 6 million people on PC and Xbox Series X/S.

Previously, no other project of the company managed to attract such a huge number of players so quickly. Let us remind you that buyers of the premium edition received access to Starfield on September 1, and the release for everyone else took place on September 6. After just 1.5 days, the game surpassed the mark of 6 million users.

It has not yet been clarified what the share of players who got acquainted with the game through the paid service Xbox Game Pass is. With user numbers at the forefront, Starfield's inclusion in subscriptions is expected to boost sales of Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Series consoles in general.
