We've known for a few weeks now when early access players can go hands-on with Starfield, but if you're just planning to blast off on the standard Xbox Game Pass launch day, Bethesda has now delivered the news you've been waiting for.
The team has confirmed the exact time you can play the standard edition of Starfield - available day one on Xbox Game Pass:
- The Starfield Standard Edition (included with Xbox Game Pass) launches on September 5th at 5pm PT / 8pm ET and September 6th at 1am BST / 2am CEST.

The hype is most definitely real now as players begin to count down the days until lift off. Fear not though, this Xbox Game Pass title should last you quite a while if recent comments from Bethesda are anything to go by.
We'll see you in the Starfield!
Are you jumping into Starfield on day one? Is that a silly question? Let us know down below.

Fast approaching. For selfish reasons, I wish it was coming the Friday before labor day weekend for us muricans.. would've been great to have it on a 3 day weekend
I may just play this at 2 am when Early Access launches. I did wait till midnight to play TLoU2 when it launched and it was very exciting. Got it preloaded and waiting.
Just don't expect a review from us anytime soon as we haven't received review code, along with a bunch of other sites. 😕
@PJOReilly Seriously? Let me get Phil on the phone…
If I am reading this correctly I can play August 31 at 5pm? Yes! Can’t wait now …
I got the wallpaper they released a couple days ago (first image above) saved as my pc and phone backgrounds. I don't remember the last time I was this hyped for a game.
@AlwaysPlaying if you have early access, yes!
@Kezelpaso I do and looks like for once West Coast NA gets it first instead of NZ. sorry Alpha Centuri
@PJOReilly wow, that's a shame! One of a few sites I trust in terms of reviews... We need to write to Todd asap so he sends a copy to you, guys!
I will be preinstalling the day before. It's always a little late on my region anyways.
@PJOReilly That’ a bit worrying for the game’s quality…
What has PX done to never get codes? Your sister sites get codes for most releases. So which of you p****d someone at Xbox off?
@Microbius
Please drastically lower your expectations for Skyrim VR. Skyrim and Fallout 4 VR have to be two of the laziest VR ports I've ever had the displeasure of playing
Pre-loaded all ready for Sept 6th. I can wait a few days for access...

@NintendoByNature It is. A week from today - Thursday night, August 31st at 8 pm. That's before Labor Day weekend.
@PsBoxSwitchOwner in this case we really don't know, lots of sites have missed out on codes it seems.
A lot of the time with third party games it's actually an Xbox problem in general, the platform just doesn't seem to get codes generated as early as PS/PC.
August 31st, 7pm, let's go!
Question if I buy the Premium Edition Content upgrade On Series X ( I already have the base game installed ) will I be able to play Starfield on PC game pass 5 days earlier and the future Expansion? Its just that I will be switching between Series X and a laptop due to others using TV
@Tsushima As long as you have Game Pass Ultimate (or bought the digital edition of the game), the upgrade purchase is a one-time purchase and goes for both PC and Console.
@PJOReilly Are you sure they didn't accidently send it to Push Square? haha
I am excited to be playing at 1am on the 1st Sept! almost there now!
@GamingFan4Lyf Thanks for the reply. I have Game Pass Ultimate
Can’t believe the hype this game is getting. I have no such interest (though admittedly has a bit to do with such a backlog of games, for all three brand consoles no less).
Something for everyone. And all the better if helps keep Xbox brand viable with increased Game Pass subs as well as standalone purchases including bonus content.
1 am in the UK I will probably get to the part where i create my character and then turn it off ready for when I wake up
And 7 days to get 3,258 Microsoft points so I can get the Premium upgrade 🤞
@FenIsMightier IJBOL - I think I just got too excited and forgot how times zones worked!
Yes! Love that 5pm launch. I took an extra day on my weekend so I can really dig in
@PJOReilly
Wow, I didn't realize this..... you guys were going to be the 1st review I looked at before I slunk the cash down
This is kind of crappy Zenimax....
@Romans12 for early access only, yes? I'm going with standard on GP
As someone who has ordered the Constellation Edition, this description of the watch on the Starfield website is very interesting...
The Starfield Chronomark watch only supports English, while the ‘Starfield Watch’ companion app supports English, French, Italian, German and Spanish. Weather features will not be supported at launch. Phone connectivity limited. The Starfield Chronomark watch does not transmit phone calls, does not support cellular service and is not a touch screen device.
@NintendoByNature Oh, sorry. Thought you meant early access. You are correct.
@Romans12 thought I was losing it lol. Thanks for the reply
@NintendoByNature They know EXACTLY what they are doing selling “early access” before the three day holiday weekend. Pretty dirty tactic imo
@Kezelpaso do you not have an inside contact who can help you out? Maybe start a petition to Phil and we can all sign it. Or just write an article asking us to spam his X/Twitter handle to get his attention (or some other Xbox exec).
Let us all help you get a code. Haha
No more lies Todd Howard, give it to me NOW
@CallMeDuraSouka Well, we'll have our review as soon as we can, and we'll be digging into guides and other features. Luckily the game is on GP so easy enough to try without getting too badly burned if it's not great! (I'm sure it's gonna be great)
Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype Hype!
6th seems so far away right now. Bye-bye September, see you in 2024!
@GamingFan4Lyf totally understand you're trying to do a nice thing, but we need to apply our rules consistently and therefore removed the comment. Naturally, we would encourage you to reach out to others in different ways/places. Thanks for understanding!
10am in Australia... Give me a midnight drop!
Oh well. They're still going to get my money for the earlier date lol.
Quibbles about 'day 1' aside, Im sharing the excitement for finaly getting to try this title! Its time for some 1st party xbox titles to shine and remind us why are all here! Cant wait...
@AlwaysPlaying it's a global release. Everyone gets it at the same time
Have game pass Ultimate and bought the expansion and now i wait for August 31st! Missed the collectors edition and hope they re stock like Death Stranding did so I can get that beautiful case and watch to go with the controller, headphones, xbox wrap. I even found a great poster hanging on my game room wall. My Buck Rodgers dreams are about to come true!
I'll be getting home Thursday afternoon and napping until about midnight, get up, get coffee, get controller charged with headphones so I don't wake the wife and play until I have to work.
