Starfield is influencing companies to invent new marketing stunts. With its release date coming near, the sellers have come up with exclusive deals on the game’s pre-order. Looking at the huge popularity received by Starfield, all this publicity around it just feels justified. Developed by Bethesda Softworks, Starfield is all set to hit the ground finally this September. However, long before its release, Starfield has become a major talk of the town already.

Fans are crazy excited about this game. This can be easily concluded from the exciting and interesting fan-made trailers and Reddit posts. All these hints toward the magic Starfield has created among its fan base. 

Ice cream on a mission? Best Buy has the answer

The recent addition to Starfield’s mania is an interesting offer from Best Buy. One fan took to Twitter to confirm that Best Buy is offering free HALO-Astronaut Ice Cream on pre-order of this Xbox exclusive. Adding a photo of the packet, that fan gave the link for his followers to access the product- “Starfield (XSX) preorder at Best Buy includes a free HALO – Astronaut Ice Cream.” 

This Halo-Astronaut Starfield Ice Cream offers an ice cream sandwich made of two chocolate wafers and vanilla, strawberry and chocolate ice cream filling inside. The tagline of the product seemed extremely interesting as it said- “Ice Cream on a Mission” with “you can eat on earth or in space!” Looks like Starfield madness has just begun!

Fans react to the Starfield special ice cream

The comment thread showed some hilarious moments from fans. Starfield fans have totally taken Twitter to give their interesting inputs- “So a digital code with some ice cream? Am I missing something?” However, it seemed that Best Buy couldn’t really buy out their customers with this ice cream sandwich. They seemed not to be really interested to buy it separately when a Game Pass subscription offers it for free- “No reason to pay for a subscription free game.”

Some of the fans jokingly reminded others how these ice creams were easily available at any Fry’s outlet before.

Overall, this marketing stunt couldn’t live up to the mark as fans didn’t seem convinced enough. They thought pre-ordering the game for $5 to get a free ice cream sandwich was pretty funny. 

Some fans were also spotted getting bamboozled by this deal- “Can’t believe this unironically might affect my pre-order decision.”

Some pretty sarcastic comments were also spotted in the comment box.

It seemed fans are totally going crazy about this pre-order bonuses.

Despite all the controversy, Starfield’s madness can totally be seen by everyone. If you share a similar excitement, let us know by commenting below.
