Rick and Morty Mods

With the extensive Mod support, we are pretty sure that the Space Fairing Dynamic Duo, Rick and Morty is bound to appear as one of the firsts in the mod lists. Imagine venturing through space accompanied by Rick’s quirky antics and Morty’s wide-eyed curiosity.

Transformers Mods

Staying within the space theme, the iconic alien warrior robots known as Transformers could also find their place among the mods. Modders could introduce these powerful beings into the Starfield universe, allowing players to witness epic battles between Autobots and Decepticons amidst the vastness of space.

Superman Mod

With aliens playing a significant role in Starfield, it’s only fitting to include the legendary Kryptonian hero, Superman. As the last son of a long-lost planet, Superman’s superhuman abilities and unwavering sense of justice would make for an exciting addition to the game. Superman is one of the faces of the superhero world, alongside Batman, Spiderman, and Wonder Woman. And who knows maybe one day we may get a mod for each of the heroes. 

Skyrim Mods

Described by Todd Howard as “Skyrim in space,” Starfield’s universe is likely to welcome mods inspired by Bethesda’s beloved RPG, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Players may encounter familiar characters, weapons, and quests, bridging the gap between the two iconic titles.

Fallout Mods

No list of iconic Bethesda mods would be complete without mentioning Fallout. The post-apocalyptic setting of the Fallout series could seamlessly blend with Starfield’s atmosphere, offering unique experiences and adventures for players.

Lovecraftian Mods

Space, with its unknown and mysterious nature, has long been a source of inspiration for H.P. Lovecraft’s horror works. A Lovecraftian mod in Starfield could introduce cosmic horrors and eldritch abominations, immersing players in the depths of cosmic terror. So if you see a mod with Chuthullu rising on a random planet then don’t be too surprised. 

Anime Mods

Lastly, although more far-fetched, anime-inspired mods could bring beloved space-based and sci-fi anime series like Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, and Dragon Ball into the Starfield universe. From intergalactic bounty hunters to superpowered martial artists, the possibilities for crossover adventures are truly limitless.
