Starfield, Bethesda’s latest sci-fi RPG, was finally released this week after nearly a decade of development. That game puts players in the role of the newest recruit of Constellation, an organization of space explorers in 2330 who embark on a mission to uncover the mysteries of the universe.
With the game’s official launch this week, fans have quickly taken to charting their own stories in the vast universe of Starfield’s Settled Systems, whether it be through the creation of new mods, building elaborate extraplanetary outposts, or hunting for the best ships in every star system.
Below, we’ve gathered a list of movies and shows that have similarities to Starfield, whether in their depiction of a spacefaring civilization in the far future or in the common philosophy of space travel as a catalyst for humanity’s evolution. Maybe the vibes are just right, or there’s one crucial detail they share.
In any case, here are our recommendations for the best movies and TV shows to watch after you’re done exploring the vast world that is Starfield.

What it is: A 2019 psychological sci-fi drama about an astronaut sent on a mission to an abandoned space station orbiting Neptune to reconcile with his estranged, previously thought-to-be-dead father in an attempt to halt an extinction-level event.
Why it’s like Starfield: The film’s depiction of human colonization of the inner solar system bears a striking resemblance toStarfield’s own depiction of extraplanetary civilization. Subterranean colonies on Mars, restaurant chains on distant alien moons — it’s uncanny! —TE
Where to watch it: Available to rent for $3.99 on Amazon, Apple, and Vudu.
What it is: A classic disaster movie about an asteroid on a collision course with Earth, and the ragtag group of oil drillers turned astronauts sent on a last-ditch mission to stop it.
Why it’s like Starfield: Well, you start the game as a miner working for peanuts and rather quickly gain the ability to become an asteroid-shattering demigod, so there’s that. But Starfield also has a bit
