With Bethesda looking to ramp up the frequency of its Starfield updates in 2024 – it recently committed to a “roughly every six weeks” schedule starting in February – the studio is kicking off the new year by putting its latest patch into Steam beta next Wednesday, 17th January, with the promise of “over 100 fixes and improvements”.

Bethesda says it’ll share the full update notes when the Steam beta goes live on Wednesday but, ahead of launch, it’s teased a number of included improvements in a series of posts on social media. Next week’s update will, for instance, introduce improved textures, lighting, and shadows – the accompanying screenshots point to far more natural illumination on character’s faces, for instance – as well as additional widescreen support and stability improvements.

Bethesda is also promising a “multitude of fixes” to quests, remedying the likes of docking and data transfer problems in Eye of the Storm, as well as preventing exploration blockers caused by missing temples in Into the Unknown.
