Summary
Starfieldwill technically be playable on Xbox One thanks to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate’s cloud gaming features.Bethesda’s massive new open world sci-fi RPGis seemingly too much for the Xbox One to handle, which is why the game is releasing only on PC and Xbox Series X/S consoles.
Even though the Xbox Series X/S consoles have been available for three years now, it’s safe to say that there are some Xbox One gamers out there that have yet to upgrade for whatever reason. Those individuals may be disappointed that they are missing out onStarfield’s big launch, but as it so happens, they can technically still play the game on Xbox One. The only thing they will need is an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription.

One of the perks of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is the ability to play games on the cloud, effectivelymaking Xbox Series X Game Pass games playable on Xbox One consoles. This is certainly not the ideal way to playStarfield, as cloud gaming tech still has yet to be perfected, but for those that can’t get an Xbox Series X in time for launch, it will be better than nothing. Of course, a reliable and fast internet connection will be necessary for anyone that plans to playStarfieldon Xbox One through cloud gaming.
To enjoyStarfieldto its fullest, Xbox gamers will want to get a quality gaming PC or pick up an Xbox Series X or S console. While the Xbox Series S is definitely weaker than the Series S, Todd Howard himself hasvouched forStarfieldon Xbox Series S, so it should still be a quality experience on the cheaper system.
Starfieldlaunches on September 6 for PC and Xbox Series X.
