Bethesda Game Studios’ space explorer game “Starfield” will be available on PlayStation 5 beginning April 7.

The new platform debut for “Starfield” marks the latest Microsoft-owned game to make it to Sony’s competitor gaming console after previously being kept as an Xbox and PC exclusive, like “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.”

Along with the PS5 launch, “Starfield” will get its biggest free update since the game debuted in September 2023, called “Free Lanes,” as well as the new Terran Armada story DLC, which will go live across all platforms.

Per PlayStation, adaptive triggers on the PlayStation 5 DualSense controller will allow players to change weapons in “Starfireld,” keep tabs on their health and ship integrity, instantly access the map and hand scanners, and jump between first and third-person POVs using the touchpad. Additionally, in-game audio logs and non-local ship intercoms will pour through the DualSense controller speaker, providing players with an immersive experience.
