PlayStation 5’s latest RPG is finally available to download, and it’s already managed to fly pastStarfieldon Metacritic. Although, we should absolutely stress: both games are brilliant in their own ways.
Starfieldlaunched in early access last week, and will be available to a wider audience in less than 24 hours. WhileBethesda’slatest has seen a lot of critical acclaim,including a GAMINGbible 10/10,some lower scores from other outletshas led toa lower-than-expected Metacritic scoreof 88. That’s lower thanSkyrim, but higher thanFallout 4.

As for whether or not it’sbetterthanStarfield? Sure, it has a higher Metacritic score, but these are two very different games that are trying to do very different things.Starfieldis an excellent space-exploration sim with plenty of fun FPS-style setpieces to enjoy.Baldur’s Gate 3is a D&D RPG with a much greater focus on strategy, both in and out of battle.
Both games are excellent, both are worth your time. Personally, I’m attempting to play them concurrently. Check in with me next week to see if I actually managed to get any sleep.
