This article includes a list of all confirmed companions in Starfield.

Starfield could well be the most anticipated game of 2023. On 11 June at the Starfield Direct event, fans got an in depth look at the upcoming space RPG from Fallout and The Elder Scrolls developer Bethesda. This included a look at the game’s mechanics, characters, story, and vast setting. Needless to say, most viewers were left stunned by the scope of the game.

Starfield takes place in the 24th century in an area of space called “The Settled Systems” that exists in a state of uncertain peace after a war between factions 20 years before the start of the game. You play as a space explorer who is a member of a group called Constellation. Like Skyrim and Fallout before it, Starfield is an action role-playing game with a heavy emphasis on exploration and narrative.

Also like those previous games, Starfield features the option to recruit companions to accompany you on your journey across the stars. Each of them comes with their own skills and abilities that can help you on your quest. What’s more, they can live with you on your own customised spaceship.

As time moves on and you form stronger relationships with companions, friendships can bloom into romance. However, it’s also possible to spend time apart by assigning companions to different bases and activities where needed.

So, let’s go over the full list of confirmed companions in Starfield.

Companions in the game can be recruited in a few different ways. Some join you as fellow members of Constellation, whereas others are found in the field or at space ports.

The following list details the confirmed companions and their skills (where applicable) in Starfield:

  • Sarah Morgan – Astrodynamics, Lasers, Leadership, Botany

  • Barret – Starship Engineering, Particle Beam Weapon Systems, Robotics, Gastronomy
  • Heller – Outpost Engineering, Geology

Overall, companions form an essential part of the space faring experience. Whether it’s taking them with you as you traverse the starts, venturing out on missions, assigning them to maintain your base, or for romance, they will be a huge part of Starfield.
