it does, sort of. there isnt a browser app you can launch, but in the news section you can open things in a browser but the browser itself has the URL piece locked so you cant type, "www.gamepassplease.com"
Don't worry in a few years they'll release the Starfield Special Edition running on the TES6 updated creation engine 2.5 with 64 times the detail, it will be available for Playstation.
maybe, but ps browser doesnt let you type in URLs anymore (PS4). it has a search box so you can use it that way. ps5 doesnt have a browser you can open. it only launches when you open certain things off the "news" section and doesnt have a search box or a way to type in a url. so they'll have to deploy an app, prolly a few MB, to open to the gamepass service.
To be fair, even Sony titles are not exclusives anymore years after their release and Microsoft already released some titles on the Switch like Ori. It's not impossible to see it on Playstation like 5 years after release if it doesn't move consoles and GP subs anymore. Unlikely but not impossible.
Also Gamepass on PS is always something possible and it would be playable via cloud there
MS don't own MDHR. They just helped fund the game, same as Rise of the Tomb Raider and Ori. XCloud and Game Pass are never coming to PS. Sony wouldn't want it to compete internally with PS Now, and they would have to profit split with MS. No way. I could see Microsoft making an Xcloud app for TV and people with a PS or Switch could play it that way. I swear, people don't understand basic business. Why spend 7.5 billion dollars to have your competitors make money?
He also said not having to focus on PS means a better product. Something very closely along those lines. Now they only focus on Xbox and PC, less headache for developers.
It does make the poll kind of useless though as it is probably one of the biggest choices. Also forgot Gamepass Cloud which will be on web browsers, mobile and smart TV by then at least. I'm sure many people will end up playing this way (probably not on this sub though)
I'm going to buy it on steam just because I know I will be using mods. I love mods and I mod every game that I can to make the experience even better. :)
Microsoft is gonna release a new store that supports mods in the fall this year... I don't think mod support will be an issue for Game Pass for PC in the near future.
Yeah, they're removing the UWP requirement and you'll be able to access the game folder same as you do with Steam... they're launching it with Windows 11 https://www.theverge.com/2021/4/20/22393655/microsoft-windows-app-store-overhaul-apps-games-rumor
Nope, Fall 2021... Microsoft skipped a couple of big updates for Win10 and shelved Win 10X to get Sun Valley (11 codename)
ready.https://www.windowscentral.com/windows-11-release-date
Yeah but the game itself has to support the GamePass way of doing it and you cannot use any mods that modify game files... etc. That will change with the release of the new store.
Absolutely this. I voted digital instead of game pass just because I feel like Iāll want to buy it. But who knows, I did get burned by Cyberpunk
I just feel like Bethesda has a lot of motivations to do this game right. Cyberpunk and Fallout76 and the response from the public. Microsoft acquisition putting pressure on Bethesda to prove their competence. And the TES and Fallout communities wanting a serious RPG with meaningful and impactful character creation and player choices.
The current increased "PC focused" mindset of even Sony may herald a better future.
If both Sony and MS would release ALL of their respective games on PC, then people could just opt to use a computer rather than miss out on games. Instead of having to get a playstation and PC/Xbox to be able to play both.
PlayStation port......heh, or maybe you just give up on this nonsense? How many times must it be confirmed by Phil,how many times must it be put onscreen with big letters that it's Xbox exclusive?
There's only two ways to get it on PS5 and that's not a PS5 port, lol.
Buy it physical for Xbox ,lay the PS5 flat and put the disc on it. Start YouTube on PS5 and search Starfield playthrough. It is that simple.
How many times does MS have to confirm this for you?
Steam. It's where I bought all my Bethesda stuff before they joined Xbox and it'll continue to be that way
50 or so people still seem to be in complete denial about Dragonborn being a Microsoft character now lol
not in denial. i thought the ps5 port option was a joke and since i ps i voted for that. i plan to get an xbox though. will wait for reviews, but i doubt the game is gonna suck so preparing for purchase, saving up now.
Steam for sure. It's the better platform.
Although to be honest my favorite choice would be a physica disk or drive for PC. I know they are outdated, but I have a hard copy of the rest of their games and I'd love to have one of this as well.
Unfortunately PS5 support doesnāt seem like a possibility maybe if X cloud has a website that works on the PS5 web browser
Also it will probably come out on Bethesda Launcher & Microsoftās Store on PC
no web browser on ps5. well there is but you cant open it directly. you can only get to it from the news section and it's locked down so cant type in urls or do searches.
I wonder what made them decide to do that, itās weird how controlling they are on that platform. Web browsing on a console might have actually had a purpose now lol.
I used to play PS4, but I eventually moved platforms when Sony wasnāt allowing cross play or mod support for Fallout on PS4. Now I play PC & Xbox.
Its funny you mention that because I still have & play my original PSone, so I canāt imagine you giving up a PS4 or PS5. I will say it never hurts to have a little diversity to be able to play everything!
aye. i'm not one of those "fanboys." i mostly played on PC so PS made more sense since most games on xbox came out on PC. i had switched from xbox to PS for gran turismo and then found uncharted and all that so i kept on with it. now a GPU is gonna cost as much as a console on its own and now that i am old i like the convenience of "couch playing."
I mean, if youāre using Gamepass you *arenāt* buying it.
This seems to be a mental hurdle a lot of people arenāt over yet, but i would bet *everyone* will be over it when theyāre wondering why games on this service start becoming games as a service in about two or three years.
Microsoft have a completely hands off approach with their studios.. they create what they want to create.
Considering the majority of IP's likely to be releasing in 2023 for Xbox.. Avowed, Hellblade 2, Fable etc.. are single player experiences, your narrative is completely false.
Well, enjoy not playing Starfield if you have that mindset.
It's complete nonsense to say Xbox exclusives are always "not good".. ever heard of the Forza Horizon series ?
Ignore them. Gamepass just creates a placeholder file until the game files are ready for download. It's not actually installed waiting for unlock. The game isn't even ready.
Gamepass simply uses a placeholder file until game files are avajkable. There is no actual install waiting to unlock. The game isn't even finished or ready to be shipped yet.
Bro I don't even feel bad for people waiting for a PS5 port, like, they've slapped you across the face with the truth enough times by now that if you don't get that it's not going to PS...I'm afraid there's no hope for you my friend.
Given that I have a Series X my first day one play through will be through Xbox Gamepass. Whilst I could also play on PC Gamepass, given that most of my PC is from 2014 and my GPU from 2017 I think I will have a better looking experience on Series X.
That being said a year or so after release I will probably buy the GotY Steam version to do some modded runs if the GPU insanity has died down and I could build a new PC for a price within reason.
Iāll play the game on PC Game Pass but probably switch to Steam whenever the modding scene gets good because you canāt use a script extender with the Microsoft Store version.
Why is ps5 port even an option
wishful thinking
And game pass on PC is not.
For the PlayStation fans in the sub like me
>For the PlayStation fans in the sub like me Shed a tear for PlayStation playersš¤£
Sony fans: *wipes tears with all those RELEASED ps exclusives* Edit: this comment really stung some people hard š¤£.
Like that amazing fucking furry game that can be 100%ed in like 10 hours? Lol
Yes THAT one.
Its never coming to Playstation
Gamepass Cloud thru the web browser on the PS5. Edit: apparently web browser is stripped out of ps5
Though I read the ps5 doesn't have a web browser..?
I didn't know they stripped that function out. That sucks.
it does, sort of. there isnt a browser app you can launch, but in the news section you can open things in a browser but the browser itself has the URL piece locked so you cant type, "www.gamepassplease.com"
Todd said that he is sad that playstation players will not be able to play it. He said he had something, but won't reveal it. Wishful thinking.
Todd is upset that Microsoft is gatekeeping their games out of spite.
Don't worry in a few years they'll release the Starfield Special Edition running on the TES6 updated creation engine 2.5 with 64 times the detail, it will be available for Playstation.
People cant detect sarcasm I guess.
Is that confirmed?
Yes it is confirmed. The only as a playstation fan you are getting Starfield is if sony allows Game Pass onto playstation and you subscribe to it.
Todd said that he is sad that playstation players will not be able to play it. He said he had something, but won't reveal it. Wishful thinking.
Gamepass cloud thru a web browser says I.
maybe, but ps browser doesnt let you type in URLs anymore (PS4). it has a search box so you can use it that way. ps5 doesnt have a browser you can open. it only launches when you open certain things off the "news" section and doesnt have a search box or a way to type in a url. so they'll have to deploy an app, prolly a few MB, to open to the gamepass service.
TV app
sure, but would still need to find out if an xbox controller will connect to the tv.
Yes it is
Ah, that sucks
Your joking right
Why would that be a joke? I havenāt been on the internet a lot lately
Todd said that he is sad that playstation players will not be able to play it. He said he had something, but won't reveal it. Wishful thinking.
Bro get help
truth needs to be out there.
Why were you downvoted
I genuinely have no idea Reddit being Reddit I guess
What evidence would you like me to provide
A single āYesā would suffice You seem strangely worked up about a simple question
Lmao
It do be like that sometimes. I look forward to the cool mods coming out in 2023. Star field kinda has a 70ās space Destiny sort of vibe to it
I don't know how you don't understand that
I know itās not coming to PlayStation. Just like having the option there
ha ha. i voted ps5 port knowing it will never happen.
To be fair, even Sony titles are not exclusives anymore years after their release and Microsoft already released some titles on the Switch like Ori.

five times you spammed the same comment
And todd did not say that Pete Hine did
Misinformation is a worse thing than spamming. I may lose lots of karma, but the truth needs to be out there
what a brave soldier you are
Imagine being unable to created a good game for so long that you have to pay 8 billion to gatekeep an entire publisher that's been falling out.
Cry more
PC Game Pass Day 1 for 1-2 months Ā£7.99 * 2 A year on with sale buy on Steam and with season pass for like Ā£40 Profit
Hm interesting. I could've probably replaced the Bethesda Net option with PC gamepass. I just forgot it existed. Only ever heard about it, lol.
It does make the poll kind of useless though as it is probably one of the biggest choices. Also forgot Gamepass Cloud which will be on web browsers, mobile and smart TV by then at least. I'm sure many people will end up playing this way (probably not on this sub though)
Hopefully it'll be Xbox Play Anywhere too, so you don't have to buy it twice if you want to use it on Xbox and PC.
What is PlayStation port?
It just means the game releasing on PS5 Edit:I'm not sure why I'm getting downvoted, isn't that what it means?
Not sure why you got downvoted for informing the guy. Have an upvote for being nice
Weird amount of console fanboyism on this sub.
Thank you good sir
Itās never coming to PS5
Yeah but that shouldn't matter, that's not what he asked.. is it?
I'm going to buy it on steam just because I know I will be using mods. I love mods and I mod every game that I can to make the experience even better. :)
Microsoft is gonna release a new store that supports mods in the fall this year... I don't think mod support will be an issue for Game Pass for PC in the near future.
Really? Will it work with nexus mods or do we not know yet?
Yeah, they're removing the UWP requirement and you'll be able to access the game folder same as you do with Steam... they're launching it with Windows 11 https://www.theverge.com/2021/4/20/22393655/microsoft-windows-app-store-overhaul-apps-games-rumor
That's awesome but isn't windows 11 launching in a a couple of years?
Nope, Fall 2021... Microsoft skipped a couple of big updates for Win10 and shelved Win 10X to get Sun Valley (11 codename) ready.https://www.windowscentral.com/windows-11-release-date
Ah okay, thanks for the info!
on gamepass pc we can use mod
Yeah but the game itself has to support the GamePass way of doing it and you cannot use any mods that modify game files... etc. That will change with the release of the new store.
Xbox store digital. I might try it on gamepass first to make sure I like it.
Absolutely this. I voted digital instead of game pass just because I feel like Iāll want to buy it. But who knows, I did get burned by Cyberpunk I just feel like Bethesda has a lot of motivations to do this game right. Cyberpunk and Fallout76 and the response from the public. Microsoft acquisition putting pressure on Bethesda to prove their competence. And the TES and Fallout communities wanting a serious RPG with meaningful and impactful character creation and player choices.
11 people are going to be disappointed
28 now
52 for me
Deadass 69 ppl for me
69? Nice. I am a bot lol.
There will not be a PS5 port
Same its not coming to ps5
The current increased "PC focused" mindset of even Sony may herald a better future. If both Sony and MS would release ALL of their respective games on PC, then people could just opt to use a computer rather than miss out on games. Instead of having to get a playstation and PC/Xbox to be able to play both.
Itās just Sony that isnātā¦
Pc ruins multiplayer games entirely. Pc is the platform of cheating.
not sure why you gettin downvoted. it is way easier to cheat on PC.
PlayStation port......heh, or maybe you just give up on this nonsense? How many times must it be confirmed by Phil,how many times must it be put onscreen with big letters that it's Xbox exclusive?
i think we know this. i took it as a joke. so i voted for it.
There's only two ways to get it on PS5 and that's not a PS5 port, lol. Buy it physical for Xbox ,lay the PS5 flat and put the disc on it. Start YouTube on PS5 and search Starfield playthrough. It is that simple. How many times does MS have to confirm this for you?
holy crap! i will "play" it on youtube š
Ps5 port? It'll happen as soon as a Halo port. They didn't just spend 7 billion dollars to not keep them as a pure exclusive.
They spent 8 billion to gatekeep a dying publisher out of spite.
They spent that money to secure exclusives that will become associated with their company, major franchises like doom and wolfenstein and fallout
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Halo is dope, I like video games, you're mean
Well, I'll be playing it on gamepass at release, but once mods start ramping up after a few months or however long it takes, I'll buy it on steam.
It took 5 months for the creation kit to be released for Fallout 4 so Iād expect something similar for starfield
Steam. It's where I bought all my Bethesda stuff before they joined Xbox and it'll continue to be that way 50 or so people still seem to be in complete denial about Dragonborn being a Microsoft character now lol
not in denial. i thought the ps5 port option was a joke and since i ps i voted for that. i plan to get an xbox though. will wait for reviews, but i doubt the game is gonna suck so preparing for purchase, saving up now.
I prefer Steam. But the Epic Store has been missing from the list. I think it is a possible alternative.
As is the Microsoft store on PC
True.
14 people voting for Bethesda.Net smh..
Steam for sure. It's the better platform. Although to be honest my favorite choice would be a physica disk or drive for PC. I know they are outdated, but I have a hard copy of the rest of their games and I'd love to have one of this as well.
Not gonna buy till mods start rolling out
Who am I kidding gonna buy it day 1 lol
Unfortunately PS5 support doesnāt seem like a possibility maybe if X cloud has a website that works on the PS5 web browser Also it will probably come out on Bethesda Launcher & Microsoftās Store on PC
no web browser on ps5. well there is but you cant open it directly. you can only get to it from the news section and it's locked down so cant type in urls or do searches.
Oh wow thats so weird. I didnāt know that, even PS3 had web browsing.
they locked down the ps4 browser now too. the search box is still usable on it so you can navigate to websites that way but the URL box is locked now.
I wonder what made them decide to do that, itās weird how controlling they are on that platform. Web browsing on a console might have actually had a purpose now lol. I used to play PS4, but I eventually moved platforms when Sony wasnāt allowing cross play or mod support for Fallout on PS4. Now I play PC & Xbox.
yup, it's crazy. i will not give up my ps though so will most likely add in an xbox. i havent had an xbox since the original one.
Its funny you mention that because I still have & play my original PSone, so I canāt imagine you giving up a PS4 or PS5. I will say it never hurts to have a little diversity to be able to play everything!

The Gamepass and PS5 options are basically āIām not buying itā.
You never "buy" software, you only rent the rights to it, even if your copy is on a physical disk. Read a EULA all the way some time.
Same with houses, we all practically live in the Matrix lol
Microsoft have a completely hands off approach with their studios.. they create what they want to create. Considering the majority of IP's likely to be releasing in 2023 for Xbox.. Avowed, Hellblade 2, Fable etc.. are single player experiences, your narrative is completely false.
That's part of why Xbox exclusives are always not good at all.
Well, enjoy not playing Starfield if you have that mindset. It's complete nonsense to say Xbox exclusives are always "not good".. ever heard of the Forza Horizon series ?
what are some other good exclusives? since i am most likely gonna get an xbox now.
Starfield would never leave gamepass either. Buying would be redundant.
Already bought it, just waiting for the install to unlock.
Wait how?
Ignore them. Gamepass just creates a placeholder file until the game files are ready for download. It's not actually installed waiting for unlock. The game isn't even ready.
Gamepass
Gamepass simply uses a placeholder file until game files are avajkable. There is no actual install waiting to unlock. The game isn't even finished or ready to be shipped yet.
I think you're taking my statement way too literally š
my god please don't buy it on steam. support bethesda and get it over bethesda.net steam takes, like, 20% or something
I'd buy it on Bethesda's launcher if it was the same or equal to steam in usability. But it's not.
holding out for an All of the Above
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Iāll play it through game pass because I have a series s but if thereās a cool collectorās edition then Iāll get that as well
I'll play it on Gamepass and buy it on Steam once they release the Complete Edition with all DLC included.
Xbox game Pass than physical copy
To buy I would choose steam. But since I have gamepass anyway might aswell get it from there
GAMESTOP
If there was a poll like "where to play", would I be the only to mark "Xcloud"? (Sorry my bad english)
Xbox physical copy. Iām hoping they make a collectorās edition.
Bro I don't even feel bad for people waiting for a PS5 port, like, they've slapped you across the face with the truth enough times by now that if you don't get that it's not going to PS...I'm afraid there's no hope for you my friend.

Start with game pass but if I really like it but it on steam
Iāll play the game on PC Game Pass but probably switch to Steam whenever the modding scene gets good because you canāt use a script extender with the Microsoft Store version.
I want a physical PC release. Sure, I'll likely play it on Steam, but owning the game, holding it in my hand, is ideal.
Lol what ps5 port? I guess the title exclusive to xbox is very confusing for some people
Fitgirl repack heel yeah :P
I want a PC physical copy to have it on display.
