Starfield continues to get better and better and now, almost a year after release we are finally getting vehicles – well, one for now, to drive around. Suddenly those barren planets will not take as long to traverse, and as for the cities? Well, maybe it’s time to hit the road.
The vehicle in question is a space buggy type of thing, so if you are up for cruising around in this Moon Patrol-esque machine, the only question you need the answer to, is how do you get hold of one? It’s going to cost you. Not real money but those Starfield Creditsr things, which may be in abundance if you have been working hard doing missions, or you may find you need to save up a bit longer. Let’s find out, shall we?
How to get vehicles in Starfield
At the moment, there is just the Rev-8 Planet Rover. It may well be that more are added to the game over time, and it may well be that we can get there from different places too, but for now, it is definitely a one car from one guy type of vibe.
The guy in question? It’s the Ship Services Technician of course. Known to hang around not exactly doing a lot near the landing bays – well, to be fair, doing nothing until now apart from selling the odd ship. I bet he’s fuming at suddenly having all this extra work dumped on his plate.
Anyway, all you need to do is approach him and interact. From the choices that pop up, rather obviously, choose ‘I’d like to purchase a vehicle.’
The only sticky point from here on in is having enough funds. There are no deals to be had here, no part exchange, you need 25,000 in your wallet or you can be on your way.
Hand over the cash, choose the paint job you would like from the Store menu and you are all set.
Now, landing your ship anywhere will park up the Rev-8 right next to it, ready for you to leap in and drive to the nearest Starbucks for that Skinny Latte you promised yourself upon reentry.
If you are rocking a companion there is room for them too. Just don’t let them choose the radio station.
