Summary
A brand-newStarfielddeal offers the space-based action RPG to players at its lowest price yet, but the game’s community is surprised to learn which source is supplying the sale. Unfortunately,Starfielddidn’t receive the launch Bethesda was hoping for and currently stands with mostly negative reviews as of 2025. Players have reported several bugs plaguing gameplay and a lack of well-functioning features to make space exploration immersive enough.
Starfieldwas first launched back in 2023, flaunting an open world within the Milky Way galaxy for players to discover mysterious artifacts.Starfieldannounced its May 2025 update patch notesrecently for beta testers, focusing on new quality-of-life features and bug fixes. While the update didn’t supply any new content, it did feature improvements to performance on lower-end PCs and fixed several gameplay glitches, as well as support for creators by adding new icons and the ability to upload larger creations.
Starfield’s latest and surprisingly cheap deal comes from theVerizon store, which is offering the game for $17.50 on physical Xbox Series X and S copies only, similar to another stellarWalmart deal that aStarfieldfan spottedlast year. Since the title is usually costing its standard price of around $69.99, this is a massive 75% saving, but the gaming community was confused as to why a store that normally sells mobile phones and internet savings was offering the deal. Considering the massive discount does not have a time limit, it would be wise for interested parties to take advantage of the sale sooner rather than later, in case the offer doesn’t last long.
Starfield Discounted to $17.50 Through New Verizon Deal
Despite the generous offer, a majority of gamers still didn’t believeStarfieldwas worth the discounted price, but some were persuaded by the free shipping offer. However, the majority of social media comments were questioning why Verizon is now selling games. Since players have felt disappointed by the title’s lack of engaging content, the modding scene has been making up for Bethesda’s shortfall, such as offering over300 missions within aStarfieldmod.
On a brighter note,Starfield’s PlayStation 5 port has been teased for a 2025 release, according to a reporter who predicted the port would arrive in tandem with the game’s next big expansion. It was noted that the PS5 version would have originally been planned to accompany 2024’sShattered SpaceDLC, and the gaming community has become restless in recent months, waiting for new information on the in-demand port.
