Starfield:Places

This page or section is incomplete. You can help by adding to it. For more information, see the help files, the style guide, and this article's talk page.

There are many places in the Settled Systems to see. There are over a hundred different stars that can be visited, and over a thousand planets.

You can also find our interactive Starfield map at https://maps.starfieldwiki.net.

Astral Bodies

Stars

There are 120 stars systems in Starfield. Some systems are binary, and appear superposed on the world map, but each planet orbits just one star.

Notable stars include the United Colonies holdings of Sol, Toliman, Alpha Centauri, and Wolf, as well as the Freestar Collective's Cheyenne, Valo, Volii, and Narion.

Planets and Moons

Planets are smaller celestial bodies that orbit stars. Planets will have markers indicating major locations, such as New Atlantis. You can choose to land at these major locations, but you can also choose to land anywhere else on the planet.

Moons orbit around planets, but are otherwise very similar to them.
