Following a showcase that included a new trailer for Starfield and its official release date, the inXile Entertainment studio, known for Wasteland 3 and Torment: Tides of Numenera, decided to stir a playful jab at the Bethesda project.
On the studio’s official Twitter page, a post appeared that altered the starfield main art by inserting characters from an animated Garfield the cat series.
Fans and online observers are already joking that modders will likely pick up the idea and insert Garfield and his friends into Starfield once it lands.
The game is slated to arrive on September 6 for PC and Xbox Series X|S. It’s worth noting that earlier plans had the release set for the first half of 2023. EMPRESS showed off her style by creating herself in Nioh 2
Note: the playful trolling is part of a broader pattern where studios tease fans with unexpected crossovers and humor while the industry builds anticipation around major releases. The Garfield gag underscores how communities and modding culture can amplify excitement ahead of launch, refreshing discussions about how creative media sometimes blends with blockbuster titles.
InXile’s playful approach also highlights the power of social media to shape the narrative around upcoming games, inviting fans to imagine unexpected collaborations and future mods that fans may dream up after release.
As anticipation builds, players look forward to how Starfield will perform on PC and console hardware, and how the broader gaming ecosystem will respond to the new title in a year when crossovers and community-driven content continue to captivate players.
