According to an Xbox insider, neither Redfall nor Starfield are having good times right now. Redfall is according to a rumor in bad shape, and Bethesda’s highly anticipated space RPG Starfield, which was widely anticipated, is doing even worse, according to one leaker who received accurate information about the new Hi-Fi Rush game right before it was publicly unveiled. These rumors follow the declaration of Redfall’s release date, which is now set for May, with Starfield to follow some time later.
Starfield rumor says that it is in a rough shape
In a discussion thread on the forums about the joint demonstration from Xbox Game Studios and Bethesda Softworks from earlier in the week, a ResetEra member going by the handle “Horns” posted information about the purported state of Starfield. When the game released on the same day as the event, Horns’ early prediction in the ResetEra thread that Tango Gameworks will release something playable on Wednesday after the event proved to be accurate. The user returned with some potentially negative Starfield news once that rumor was confirmed.
Horns said, “So MS lost tons and tons of money on Azure this fiscal year. They’re asking all divisions to blunt the loss. One thing MS has floated for Xbox is releasing Starfield before fiscal year aka June 2023. Redfall is coming first and is in rough shape still, and probably should use more quality control, but it’s still in better shape than Starfield. Bethesda wants more time with Starfield and if they get their way Starfield will come in the fall 2023. If MS gets their way it comes out in this fiscal year. If Starfield comes in June expect it to be in rough shape.”
Many people were waiting for Redfall to have a release date so that they could have a better sense of when Starfield would be released, even if there are surely many who are interested in the game and welcomed the release date announcement provided on Wednesday. Even though Bethesda and Xbox do currently have a release date in mind, if these leaks are accurate like the Hi-Fi Rush rumor was, Starfield’s release date may not be as certain. The Starfield rumor aside, we now have other recommendations for you.
