Starfield appears to be quite the success for Microsoft and Bethesda Game Studios, having exceeded a million concurrent players on the day of its official launch. Phil Spencer, head of Xbox, shared the news in a tweet yesterday, thanking all of the Xbox fans, Bethesda fans, and other players who made this milestone possible. Spencer included a photo that shows off all of the great scores that Starfield has received from various publications, although IGN and Gamespot, both of which gave the game a 7, appear to be missing.
Starfield exceeded 1 million concurrent players across all platforms today. Thanks to all the players who helped us reach this great milestone and congrats to the @BethesdaStudios.
