One talentedStarfieldplayer has mocked up what the RPG’s local planet maps might look like when they eventually arrive.
When Starfield first launched, one common criticism among players was a lack of detailed maps for individual planets and other areas like cities, such as New Atlantis. So widespread was this criticism, thatBethesda eventually pledged to add the feature later on, but we’ve still got no firm release window for the local maps.
The Starfield player below is taking matters into their own hands. They’ve managed to mock up a brilliant local planet map for the space RPG based on Jemison in the Alpha Centauri System. It’s a really neat look at the geography and wildlife of the planet itself while also outlining key locations like caves and your ship.
You can see the map concept from Camelworks at the 14-minute mark, and it is well worth doing as the whole thing looks grand. Camelworks rightly points out thatSkyrim, over a decade before Starfield, had detailed local maps, so it makes perfect sense that Bethesda fans were calling for the feature to return for the spacefaring RPG in the first place.
