It’s no secret that Bethesda games are notorious for being pretty broken. Starfield is no exception and while we wait around for Todd Howard and his crew to unleash an update for its latest IP, the fan base has things covered for now.

DLSS is coming to Starfield, but it won’t be today. Developer Bethesda has released a bite-sized update for Starfield, bringing an FOV slider and support for Intel Arc GPUs. And that’s roughly about it, folks.
The patch is perhaps a prelude to the larger one fans have been clamoring for, which Bethesda has hinted is coming soon. Granted, players have been asking for the FOV slider update in Starfield for around a month. But there are also requests for a brightness slider, along with a myriad of other accessibility options and quality-of-life features that are mysteriously absent from the game. Today’s update hints at Bethesda putting a drip feed on the requested changes, leaving many to wonder when the big update is coming.
The latest update is notably smaller than the last and addresses only a few concerns. For owners of Intel Arc GPUs, the patch does promise “Improved stability.” Here are the notes in their entirety via Bethesda:
GENERAL
PERFORMANCE AND STABILITY
QUEST
What update 1.7.36 brings to the table highlights what it leaves out. For example, Starfield players on its subreddit note that the patch doesn’t fix a lot of bugged missions save for the one listed. The Crimson Fleet quest, Echoes of the Past, still has a rare bug preventing progress. Other players are a bit more optimistic, signaling the FOV addition is a promising start. Hopefully we’ll see those more substantial changes come to the game soon.
Update 1.7.36 is available now for Starfield on all platforms.

Square Enix is touring its highly anticipated RPG, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, to let the world sample what was demoed at Tokyo Game Show a few weeks ago. Its most recent stop brought it to New York City during New York Comic Con. Behind closed doors, Square Enix invited select media to give the upcoming action-RPG a spin. Our early impressions are incredibly promising, as Rebirth builds upon Final Fantasy VII Remake's excellent foundation by widening the game's scope and combat options. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is shaping up to be a monstrously large PlayStation 5 game, and one we can’t wait to play when it launches on February 29, 2024.
