I can't verify this but it just came my way. Could be fake (and pretty low rez), but whatevers, enjoy (or not): -





I made a link with both videos below: -

Starfield finally leaked.mp4 and 1 more file

2 files sent via WeTransfer, the simplest way to send your files around the world

we.tl

Edit was indeed a Fake (as suspected)



Props to S Snakey125 for the find

 

[O-N-E]

 

[EviLore]

Hmm. Not much to go on. Anyone into the current batch of space games recognize these assets?

 

[CatLady]

I don't know if it's real or not, but I sure would love to get some official info and video from BGS. I'm really looking forward to this game.

 

[Bladed Thesis]

Did they record it through a camera through a glass bottle?

What year is this?

 

[IntentionalPun]

Meh... would much rather these mofos just keep making their typical RPGs.

 

[xool]

mildy hype for this

 

[LordOfChaos]

The video may be low res but it seems like the models, lighting, and simulation are up there at AAA quality on the underlying source.

If fake, that's a lot of effort. Seems plausibly legit.

 

[bohrdom]

This is probably fake because it runs too well for a Bethesda game. Jk. Looks exciting!

 

[GlassAwful]

Elite Dangerous or Star Citizen with the graphics turned down?? Which will it be?

Thats what you do when you try to make it seem like a LEAK

 

[Skyr]

If it looks like a leaked footage, it's probably not leakead footage.

 

[SleepDoctor]

I don't even wtf starfield is lol.

Pc or console?

 

[Snake29]

Sound like a combination of both of Elite and SC maybe. I'm curious since i really like SC so hopefully we'll see something soon from StarField

 

[JareBear: Remastered]

It almost seems like they tried too hard to make the video quality worse than it ever should be in 2020, unless that was done extra to make it harder to figure out where it has leaked from? I mean that recording is dreadful.

That being said, if we are flying through wormholes ala Interstellar in this game then sign me the hell up

Nah, they were trying to make it look like a Bethesda game in 2020

 

[SpartanN92]

I know that Bethesda can’t make Fallout and Elder Scrolls forever but Elder Scrolls 6 excited me way more than this... like I NEED Elder Scrolls 6 info

I've a feeling it was running on a console so it's just handheld phone footage zoomed in as they probably don't want any identifiers showing that might lead Beth back to them.

 

[EverythingsOverrated]

Ya, it looks cropped and zoomed. Looks like it could be real. If this game ends up being NMS lite, I have a feeling it's going to be the biggest bethesda glitch fest of all time. Can't wait.

 

[Matt_Fox]

There's nothing obviously 'Bethesda' in that video (Starfield has been confirmed to be using the Gamebryo engine)… but the footage looks pretty cool regardless. It's been a while since we've had a great single-player space exploration RPG (Mass Effect 2?) and I'm ready!

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Maybe its footage of the switch version in handheld mode.

 

[Ixiah]

Considering its the same same Eon old Engine as Skyrim, i somehow doubt it will be anything but a Bugfest, no matter what Todd Coward tells me how amazing it is.
"It just Works" my ass.

 

[Matt_Fox]

Me too, but I think Starfield will give us the best indication of what Elder Scrolls VI will be like. We'll get to see the next gen iteration of their engine and the iteration of their RPG gameplay (character creator / voiced or unvoiced protagonist / how they handle followers / etc).

 

[McCheese]

Does it matter if it's real or fake when it shows fuck all? Could be any one of 20 generic-looking space sims with the logo pasted on afterwards in after-effects.

 

[01011001]

FAKE!
It did neither crash nor did we see a glitched NPC fly across the screen typing on an invisible typewriter while his head continuously spins in place.

can't be a Bethesda game!

 

[Kadayi]

I'll be honest I don't know much about the game (someone just passed me the footage and I figured I'd share it). But I think the big issue is with anything set in space is the matter of scale against complexity. NMS does a decent Job with the whole procedural thing, but it is limited in what it can do with the environments. Every planet/moon has a uniform climate, and there are no rivers, tides or truly mountainous environments (yet). You set a space game in our solar system, you're having to start operating with an increased level of detail from the off.

 

[Hendrick's]

Chromatic aberration overload

 

[SCB3]

It kinda looks like Elite Dangerous with a Skin, that Ship Cockpit layout is very simlar

 

[Lupin3]

I wonder how many "leaks" Dreams will be responsible for...

 

[johntown]

Considering it has not been taken down and looks like Elite Dangerous with mods I going with fake.

 

[JimboJones]

Thought it said Seinfeld footage

 

[PhoenixTank]

Flying towards/around a black hole would definitely explain the "field" part of the name but have no idea if that is something that has been mentioned before.
Anyone recognise the faint piano & strings piece in the first video?

 

[Optimistic Gamer]

Thought it said Seinfeld footage

That would explain the bad resolution AND why it's so uninteresting.

 

[Andodalf]

Thats what you do when you try to make it seem like a LEAK

Which is why I only believe leaks that are played off VHS in a barn

 

[Cert.in.Death]

Ah 2002 game coverage, we have returned.

Where's the Halo 2 and KH footage so we can compare side-by-side?

 

[Grinchy]

Did someone find a recording device from the 80s and hide it inside of a piece of luggage? How does a video recorded in 2020 look like this unless you're doing it on purpose?

 

[sonomamashine]

Say No More

 

[ShaneDH]

In the second video, is that a city that the player is flying towards?!

 

[Kadayi]

I thought it was a space station off of mars

 

[Hawking Radiation]

These next gen SSD's are going to be crucial for such large ambitious games like Star Citizen and this new Starfield game.

I can't wait to traverse galaxies, discovering new planets and civilizations.

If the footage is legit, then this looks like its going to be a No Man's Sky on crack.

 

[rofif]

Even a 15$ pen camera is better quality !
This not elite dangerous or no man sky vr... but it loos good

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Bright HDR is how.

 

[AceofJakes]

Imma go with fake.

Be cool if this turned out to be true though.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Why wasn't this recorded vertically for even better "shitty cam" effect.

 

[Bolivar687]

I really don't want to play this video game.

 

[JimboJones]

That would explain the bad resolution AND why it's so uninteresting.

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

It's a hoax boys.

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

That would explain the bad resolution AND why it's so uninteresting.

Just had to show my respects for this comment

 

[Fbh]

Well it does look like a current gen game so at least that part is an accurate representation of a next gen Bethesda game

 

[sol_bad]

Should anyone care? Does anyone really trust Bethesda at this point?
