Summary
TheStarfieldcommunity is gearing up for the highly-anticipated release of theShattered SpaceDLC buta recent leak should have fans looking even further into the future. It’s confirmed thatShattered Spacewill take acloser look at the bizarreHouse Va’ruun, an intergalactic cult dedicated to worshipping what appears to be a dark deity known as the Great Serpent, but there are still many more pressing questions that need to be answered. One of the core mysteries of the game relates to the Starborn and, even grander than that, the creation of The Unity.
Posted to X (formerly Twitter) bybogorad222, the user shared a link toa trademark filing for what could be aStarfieldexpansion simply titledStarborn.

The trademark was filed on July 12 but aside from this information, no further details are included.It’s currently unconfirmed whether this is the second DLC slated to drop afterShattered Spaceor some kind of licensed product that exists within theStarfielduniverse. Speculation is currently running rampant as the community debates whether this supposed expansion could fill in some vital gaps inStarfield’s expansive lore.
Starfield’s Newest NPC May Have A Powerful Origin Story
Starfield’s Trackers Alliance introduces players to Agent No. 1, an agent with an unknown identity, though a few theories explain their capabilities.
What Could Starborn Be About?
A Peak Into The Start Of The Universe
Starfieldhas already provided some answers as to what lies within The Unity andthe nature of the Starbornbut there are still plenty of questions befuddling players.One of the most prevalent is who created The ArtifactswhichConstellation spends the bulk of the game trying to locate.A race known only as The Creators is believed to have sculpted the Artifacts and Templesbut next to nothing is known about the ancient group.
It’s possible thatStarborncould also focus on The Creators based on a hint hidden withinStarfield. Upon finding the Unity,the ethereal sphere explains that humanity may one day meet The Creatorsbut never explains how that’s possible given that the race is believed to be extinct. This could be a tease as to the contents of the DLC or it could simply be a piece of lore with no intention behind it.

Whatever the case may be,Starfieldplayers can at least rest easy knowing thatShattered Spaceis on the horizon.The game’s first major expansion is slated to drop in fall 2024which is just a few months away at the time of publication. Aside from taking a closer look at House Va’ruun, precious little else has been revealed about the DLC so more information will likely be confirmed in the coming weeks.
