Bethesda has published a new video where Design Director Emil Pagliarulo showed us Starfield's Settled Systems and briefly explained the game's backstory. Bethesda's upcoming space RPG will take place in The Settled Systems, an area approximately 50 light-years away from our solar systems. 20 years prior to the start of the game, two factions – the United Colonies and The Freestar Collective – fought each other in a devastating war. The game itself takes place in 2330 and The Settled Systems are in an uneasy peace, but between mercenaries, space pirates, spacers, and religious zealots, there are plenty of dangerous humans out there.
The trailer also shows us some stunning concept art, from a utopian metropolis to a criminal underworld, war-torn planets, and character art.
