Starfield may have just barely launched into Early Access but there are already a plethora of mods available with more and more popping up every day. Here are the top 5 mods in no particular order we feel are essential in starting your massive journey with Constellation. Have any other suggestions? Drop them in the comments!

1 - Starfield FSR2 Bridge - Replacing FSR2 with DLSS or XeSS

DLSS and even XeSS should have been included with Starfield at launch. They weren’t so I guess modders are here to the rescue. Easy to install, non-disruptive, and compatible with other mods. Just get it. make sure to enable FSR2 in game and adjust render percentage. It then bridges to DLSS or XeSS.

2 - Starfield Performance Optimizations

Starfield is an absolute monster. It even taxes out rig with an RTX 4090 card. Here are several different options to help you play smoother, complete with potato mode!

3 - Cleanfield - A No-Intro Videos And Clean Menu Fix

No offense to developers out there but we don’t need to be locked into an intro video or logo every time we launch. Also, since this isn’t a live service game, we also don’t need live service type items that are actually static cluttering our menus. Thank you.

4 - BETTERHUD

Every modern game needs more HUD options. Modders to the rescue again here with items that should have been included at launch.

5 - Smooth Ship Reticle (120fps Smooth UI)

For some reason the Ship UI and HUD elements are locked at 30 FPS but the game can run at 60+ FPS on PC. This takes off the cap and delay to make your ship experience much more smooth!
