Can you tame the creatures in Starfield?
Unfortunately, you cannot tame the Starfield creatures or have them as loyal pets to aid you in battles, unlike other games. There will be no petting the space dog here.
In other words, players won't be able to mount creatures to use them as land vehicles for transportation. Instead, you'll have to rely on your trusty boost pack to navigate the vast and mysterious cosmos, making it your primary means of getting around.
The creatures in the game serve more as environmental elements rather than interactive companions. They exist primarily to contribute to the overall atmosphere and realism of the game's worlds, making them feel more vibrant and alive.
