Starfield:Mods
In true Bethesda fashion, Starfield has a vibrant modding scene. Mods are additional files created by users that change the behaviour of the game or add extra content to experience. They range in scope from simple bug fixes, to grand visual overhauls, to adding whole new parts of the game world to explore.
How to mod Starfield
Like Skyrim and Fallout 4 before it, the easiest way to mod Starfield is with a mod manager like Mod Organizer 2 or Vortex. If you prefer to get into the nitty-gritty of it, though, you can also install mods directly to your game directory. On Steam, this can usually be found at:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\starfield
If playing on Xbox Games on PC, it will likely be found at:
C:\XboxGames\Starfield
From there, it's a simple case of heading to somewhere like Nexus Mods to see which mods you feel like installing. For more info, you can check out how to install Starfield mods here.
