As the highly anticipated release date of Starfield draws near, players find themselves wondering about the breathtaking array of planets awaiting exploration within the game's vast universe.
Starfield is primarily centred around the exploration of planets. The game places a strong emphasis on deep space exploration, with players venturing into uncharted territories, discovering new planets, and unravelling the mysteries they hold.
To help you prepare for this space expedition, this guide will provide you with a comprehensive list of all the confirmed planets in Starfield.
How many planets will be in Starfield?
Bethesda has stated that there will be over 1,000 planets to explore in Starfield. However, only about 10% of Starfield's planets will have life on them.
The planets in Starfield are procedurally generated, which means that they are created using algorithms and mathematical formulas rather than being individually designed by developers.
However, in addition to the procedurally generated content, Starfield also features hand-crafted elements that are added to the planets as players explore each location.

Starfield planets type
In Starfield, there are two types of planets: single-biome planets and multi-biome planets.
A biome refers to a specific ecological community with its own unique environmental conditions and characteristics. These conditions determine the types of plants and animals that thrive within that particular biome.
Single-biome planets are characterized by having only one distinct biome throughout their entire surface. On the other hand, multi-biome planets in Starfield exhibit a variety of different biomes across their surfaces.
That covers everything about planets in Starfield. If you're set on getting Starfield, you might want to check out the latest details on the physical edition of the game.
