New Starfield Patch Notes Highlight Improved Performance, Fixes Game-Breaking Bugs & Promises Highly-Requested PC Features

Bethesdahave confirmed that Starfield will be getting DLSS support, along with a host of other much requested features. These include brightness, contrast, and HDR controls, support for widescreen monitors, and an eat button for food.

The news was delivered via a letter from the developers alongside a small hotfix which fixes a few bugs which were preventing player progress on certain quests. The patch also includes various improvements that should boost framerates and prevent crashes, while the installation process has been improved for Xbox Series X/S users.

This letter to the community also answers a lot of questions that Starfield players have been asking since the game was released. While there’s no timeline for when we’ll be seeing these new features added, the letter mentions that players can “expect a regular interval of updates.”

Considering fans have already got DLSS3 working in-game through mods, it hopefully won’t be long before Bethesda can get official support for Nvidia’s performance enhancer.
