Bethesda continues to work on Starfield with reworks and improvements addressing minor issues and larger adjustments.

We note that the studio released the update in Steam Beta on Wednesday March 6. It is unclear when this patch will be available to everyone.

Starfield Steam Beta patch note for March 6

The official Bethesda Game Studios Twitter account has confirmed that Starfield patch 1.10.30 entered Steam Beta on March 6.

Being the game’s biggest set of changes to date, the new update primarily focuses on fixes based on gameplay comfort, meaning users shouldn’t expect any major adjustments. However, additional expressions in photo mode as well as quite a few adjustments to outposts and ships mean that players will enjoy it.
