Starfield fans have been waiting with bated breath for more information about the long-awaited space RPG. And that information finally arrived in the form of a 45-minute deep-dive during Starfield Direct on 11th June. Numerous features were unveiled and explained at length, and we learnt more about the game’s factions. The Constellation faction – a group of space explorers in Starfield – was a focal point. While we’ve heard a bit about Constellation before, we were properly introduced to some of the Constellation members in Starfield for the first time.
Described as a mythical group, Constellation are the last true explorers in the galaxy. Their primary objective is to uncover the mysteries of the Milky Way. The player character – called the Spacefarer – joins Constellation as part of Starfield‘s story.
After encountering the Crimson Fleet (a pirate faction), the Spacefarer is invited to meet Constellation and its members. It is revealed the group have found pieces of an alien artifact which they are researching and attempting to complete.
During Starfield Direct, Bethesda welcomed players into Constellation and provided an overview of its “eclectic cast of characters.”
Confirmed Constellation members in Starfield
The following characters have been confirmed as Constellation members in Starfield:
- Sarah Morgan – Leader of Constellation and a former soldier.
- Matteo – A theologian who believes there’s something else out there.
- Noel – A gifted scientist and the protege of Sarah Morgan.
- Walter – A successful businessman and Constellation’s financier.
- Vlad – A former pirate.
- Sam Coe – A former space cowboy.
- Barrett – A “charming” space explorer who hates pirates.
- Vasco – An expeditionary robot owned by Constellation.
While it remains to be seen exactly how each member of Constellation will influence the game’s narrative, we already know that most of them can be recruited as companions.
That means they can accompany you on your space travels and work as crew members on your spaceship.
With such an interesting cast of characters in Constellation alone, we can’t wait to see what’s in store for Starfield‘s other factions, cities, and planets.
