Starfield pre-order & Constellation Edition guide
Where to pre-order each of the Starfield editions from standard and digital up to the premium and Constellation versions.
Starfield is the first new IP from Bethesda in over 25 years and as such, necessitates an incredible set of collector’s editions for players to pre-order. Players can secure themselves a variety of editions including standard and digital, a premium edition with some extra content, and the mighty Constellation Edition that comes with a Starfield stylized watch. Here’s how to pre-order each edition of Starfield and what comes in each one.
Starfield pre-order guide
All who pre-order Starfield or have an active Game Pass membership will receive the Old Mars Skin Pack. This pack includes three skins: Laser Cutter and the Deep Mining Helmet and Pack. Remember that Starfield is coming to Game Pass on day one, which means if you’ve got a membership there’s no need to pre-order unless you want the extra goodies.
How to get 5-days early access for Starfield
Starfield is launching on September 6, 2023 but it is possible to play it five days early. Those who want to start playing on September 1 can do so buy pre-ordering the Premium Edition or higher. This means the following editions:
- Constellation Edition
- Digital Premium Edition
- Premium Edition Upgrade
Note that the Premium Edition Upgrade does not include the base game and is merely a way for users to upgrade the Standard Edition (useful for those who want a physical game).
