Starfield: Shattered Space deep dive promises cosmic horror, politics, up-close fights with giant alien spiders, and other things we could all do without

With two weeks to go before the release of Shattered Space, the long-awaited first story expansion for its sci-fi RPG epic Starfield, Bethesda has shared the first up-close look at what players can look forward to when they make their way to the home planet of House Va'Ruun.

The big hook in Shattered Space is that it's "completely handcrafted" and self-contained: You can leave the planet of Va'ruun'kai whenever the urge hits, but the story takes place entirely on that world. That story revolves around big trouble on the homeworld: A secret experiment went terribly wrong (shocking, I know) causing a big-ass tear in the space-time continuum that swallowed up a huge chunk of the Va'ruun capital Dazra, and in the immediate aftermath of all that death, destruction, and trauma, various political factions are jockeying for power and control.
