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.

0

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).
