Starfield was officially released to the world on September 06, 2023. It is an action-based roleplay game. The players will go on a spacefaring journey across planets with the new game. It is developed by Bethesda Games and it is a new IP for the developers after more than two decades.
It has a very elaborate storyline like any other Bethesda game with over 250,000 dialogues. It also has multiple characters and planets to explore making it a very long game. Pete Hines from the company said that he already has played around 160 hours and he is nowhere close to finishing it.
Starfield topped one million concurrent users yesterday when it was made available to all players, according to Phil Spencer. He shared a piece from the Xbox profile on Twitter that contained a significant portion of the press coverage that Starfield had received and stated that the video game had more than one million active players at any given time.
Starfield exceeded 1 million concurrent players across all platforms today. Thanks to all the players who helped us reach this great milestone and congrats to the @BethesdaStudios https://t.co/5jFaCyPz4G

In the tweet, Phil thanked all the players who brought them this impressive feat and he also congratulated the developers, Bethesda Games. The video game has received an outpouring response from the players. The ratings for Starfield are also commendable.
Will Starfield come to PS5?
Starfield has been released exclusively on Windows via Steam and Xbox Series X/S. It is also important to note that the game has not been released on PlayStation. As of now, it is an Xbox exclusive. This makes them lose out on a lot of PlayStation console players.
The developers have come out with a new game after so many years and they have proven that they haven’t lost their touch. However, that’s not enough as the players with PlayStation consoles are disappointed with it.
One user on X said that it is disappointing to see that the game has not been released on PlayStation. Though he understands that they are rivals yet he thinks that it would be a beneficial deal for all in the coming years.
Sucks that PS owners couldn't get in on it, I get competition and everything but I feel like this one would benefit from coming to PS5 a year or two down the line.

Another user on X said that Starfield would have reached the 10 million mark if it was released on Sony PlayStation too. This clearly indicates that the PlayStation users are not happy with this move made by the developers.
Only time will tell if the developers decide to make the game available for the PlayStation users. Till then, the only alternative to enjoy Starfield is on an Xbox X|S or PC.
