Starfield is set to launch on September 6, 2023, and we’ve just gotten one of the most in-depth looks at the game ever during Xbox’s Starfield Direct showcase. Preorders are now live, but if you’re interested in playing on Game Pass; I’ve got a whole new deal to highlight for you. Plus, the Starfield Xbox Controller is also now available to buy if you’re interested!
TL;DR – Our Handpicked Best Deals
Bethesda is granting early access to the game for those who buy the Premium Edition (£100) or Constellation Edition (£250), but that’s not the only way to access it. For £34.99 you can buy the Premium Upgrade and still play the game on September 1.
This is available in digital or physical form, but those preordering the physical edition will also be treated to the Starfield Steelbook display case. If you’re buying digital and have Game Pass, it’s a tiny bit cheaper as you can pick it up for £31.49 instead! There’s a whole lot more to check out just below, but for now, you can stay up to date with all your Daily Deals and savings by following @IGNUKDeals on Twitter.
