Starfield has already surpassed the one million concurrent player mark across all platforms after just one day, Xbox boss Phil Spencer tweeted late Wednesday.
Bethesda announced Starfield in 2018 during its E3 presentation and released the Xbox and PC game to much fanfare five years later on September 6. The sci-fi action role-playing game is Bethesda Game Studios’ first new IP in 25 years, following the massive success of game series like The Elder Scrolls (Skyrim) and Fallout. Microsoft, which owns Xbox, acquired Bethesda and its parent company ZeniMax back in 2021.
Starfield currently ranks fifth on Microsoft’s list of “Most Played” games on its online store, only trailing behind games like Fortnite, Call of Duty, Rainbow Six Siege, and Roblox. Starfield has already surpassed Apex Legends, Grand Theft Auto 5, and Minecraft on Microsoft’s list. Players who paid for the pricier Premium Edition of Starfield were able to start playing on September 1.
