Bethesda Announces Starfield Animated Anthology - "The Settled Systems"

[T0@st]

Bethesda Game Studios' upcoming RPG Starfield imagines a world where humanity inhabits the vastness of space. These stunning animated stories offer a glimpse into three of the major cities in the Settled Systems. Follow a delivery pilot in New Atlantis seeking the exciting life of the elite; a stranded orphan looking for a way out of Akila City; and two street rats struggling to survive in the underbelly of Neon.

SUPRA ET ULTRA
In the city of New Atlantis, capital of the United Colonies, Kent, a courier pilot, aspires to live in the most desirable part of the settled systems. After joining the UC Vanguard and working his way up to the Capital's elite, Kent quickly realizes the adventures waiting for him off-planet are what he truly longed for.

WHERE HOPE IS BUILT
Vanna—an Akila City orphan of the famous Colony Wars—desperately wants to explore the stars and only one thing stands in her way: a broken ship. Her search for repair parts leads her throughout the city, and into some unexpected danger, as she closes in on her dream.

THE HAND THAT FEEDS
Two Neon street rats, Ada and Harper, are partners in crime eking out a living stealing from the wealthy partygoers that come to the "pleasure city" to let loose. When Ada is forced into a moral dilemma, she quickly catches the attention of the all-seeing Ryujin Industries, bringing her an exciting new opportunity. But at what cost?

Starfield launches on Xbox Series X|S and PC on September 6, 2023. Pre-order now, or play it day one with Game Pass.

Looks cool to me, neat of them to do this for anyone to watch.

This is similar to something Blizzard has done with short-story animation before their expansion releases. So although it's been done before, it is cool that they did these for Starfield. It helps build understanding and interest in the story. So it's a pretty effective way to help market a game. They're a little rough around the edges, but I'd rather watch one of these for a game than a CGI trailer.
