Los Angeles, California – Fallout video game franchise fans have been eagerly anticipating the release of Starfield’s first major story expansion, Shattered Space. However, the initial reception from players has been less than enthusiastic. Since its launch, the DLC has received a mix of reviews on the Steam platform, with criticism focused on its limited content and unfavorable comparisons to previous Bethesda expansions.
Shattered Space was released just yesterday, and players have wasted no time completing the main story content, raising concerns about the expansion’s value at a price point of $30. With 681 Steam reviews already submitted, only 42% have been positive, resulting in an overall rating of “mixed.”
Some users have expressed disappointment with the expansion, noting “reskinned” weapons and outfits, a restricted location to explore, and a short main story that can be finished in just a few hours. While the negative feedback may suggest harsh criticism, many reviews convey a sense of mediocrity rather than outright dislike. As one user explained, “It’s not terrible, it’s just average.”
Both positive and negative reviews share a common sentiment – Shattered Space simply offers more of the same from the base Starfield game. Despite improvements in gameplay and content updates since its launch, Starfield continues to receive mixed reviews on Steam, with 59% positive ratings. It comes as no surprise that the expansion evokes similar reactions from players.
For gamers looking to delve into Shattered Space in Starfield, guides and walkthroughs are readily available to assist with navigating the new content. As players explore the latest expansion and share their experiences within the gaming community, the reception to Shattered Space may evolve over time.
