2022 game at earliest. No way it comes out in 2021.

Outside racing games, Bethesda's adventures are my most-played games and I'm a massive sci-fi fan so the prospect of them becoming one is pretty exciting.
Supposedly work on this game started a long time ago and it spent years in the pre-production stage. The Starfield name itself was copywritten in 2013. If that's the case, the art design in the game should be fantastic. For all the problems Fallout 4 had, concepts art and art direction were not one of them and the idea of Bethesda's super talented concept artists having had over a decade to come up with concept art for Starfield should bode well for the game.
After Fallout 4 went gold staff were committed to Starfield so actual development has been going since the end of 2015. After Fallout 76went gold at the end of 2018 the project was fully staffed and has been in full swing since. These leaks are all from before that point.
If all this is true (it's Todd, so who knows) then there's a decent chance the game might make late 2021 or early 2022. I just hope with Microsoft's recent 7.5 billion dollar infusion in exchange for a Microsoft logo on their paperwork they also received some breathing room to actually polish the game before launch (I can dream).

Leaks are basically now confirmed
Very reputable folks had already confirmed them, but more direct proof is nice!

Theres also some interesting stuff regarding an old 4chan leak that went into detail regarding engine overhaul and what that means for Starfield.

Turns out this leak might turn out to be true in the end. We will see.
tl;dr: animation overhaul (confirmed already) aswell as complete physics rewrite (maybe no longer havok instead an entirely new written physics engine), some form of raytracing, photogrammetery (confirmed already), pathfinding system will be remade, Cell system will be tossed

Random thought: I have my doubts starfield will not be on ps4/ps5 (assuming its crossgen). The game has been in development for like what, 5-6 years on all platforms and is rumored to launch in 2021? The Bethesda MS deal doesnt go through until next year sometime. I find it hard to believe they just all of a sudden stopped working on one version of the game. Id further add that sony allegedly tried to get it to be a timed exclusive so that must mean its pretty far along in development on their hardware.

If its designed to run on ps4, then most any shit PC can run it too. We're talking near bottom of the barrel at this point.
