Starfield has suffered a rough couple of weeks following its so-called "unplayable" PS5 port and subsequent disappointing fixes from Bethesda Game Studios, but it's not all doom and gloom for the space RPG – in fact, things might be a lot better than they seem.
Veteran analyst and Circana games lead Mat Piscatella reveals as much in a new online post, explaining that Starfield was actually "the best-selling video game of the week in tracked physical and digital US full game dollar sales during the week ending April 11th" – the same week Bethesda launched its divisive space game on PlayStation 5 and released its Free Lanes update, as well as the Terran Armada DLC.
