As per some insiders, Xbox will release a CGI trailer for Starfield at E3 2021. However, others believe Bethesda will release a 5-10 minute trailer that will focus on the game’s story, setting, and gameplay.
Todd Howard and Bethesda might reveal Starfield in the old-fashioned way
Traditionally, Todd Howard, the director, and executive producer at Bethesda has played a huge role during game reveals. Fans still remember the showcases for Fallout 4 and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. A similar reveal show for Starfield will certainly hit them with nostalgia and enhance the surrounding hype further.
It is worth noting that the Xbox showcase event at E3 2021 will be 90 minutes long. It will cover Xbox’s plans with Bethesda, and all the upcoming first-party titles for the Series X/S. Hence, it is unlikely that the developers will give over 10-15 minutes to Starfield.
As aforementioned, Bethesda has only released a teaser trailer for Starfield in the last two years. Naturally, there is no way to estimate the actual release date for the game.
