Bethesda ships first hotfix for Starfield PS5 Enhanced settings crashes

Bethesda has released an initial hotfix for Starfield on PS5, fixing crashes tied to Enhanced settings amid ongoing launch issues. More comprehensive fixes are planned for next week, with the studio thanking players for feedback.

Following its troubled PS5 debut marked by widespread crashes and freezes (as covered in prior updates), Bethesda issued a hotfix for Starfield targeting stability problems with Enhanced settings. The patch, announced via social media, resolves some crashes reported by players since launch. However, the team indicated that additional PS5-specific crashes and freezes persist, with another hotfix slated for next week. Starfield, Bethesda's 2023 Xbox and PC title, arrived on PlayStation last weekend alongside updates and expansions, but faced performance woes prompting player complaints and support tickets.
