According to the Xbox App for Windows, Starfield Shattered Space is expected to premiere at 4 PM BST on September 30. Although these times are currently accurate, they may vary based on your platform or region.

Is Preloading Available for Shattered Space?

At the moment, Starfield Shattered Space cannot be preloaded; however, players can opt to pre-purchase the expansion. Unlike the main game, which had a preload window nearly two weeks before its release, this DLC does not seem to offer that option.

What is the File Size?

The precise file size for Shattered Space remains unclear. While the Xbox App for Windows indicates that the expansion will only be 17.01 MB (which seems suspiciously small), Steam suggests that players should have about 125 GB of free space available, which is the same as the base game’s requirements.

Additional clarity regarding Shattered Space’s file size is likely to emerge as we approach the launch on September 30.
