Starfield 1.9.67 Update: What’s New

Bethesda’s Starfield 1.9.67 update is out of beta and Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Windows players can download it right now.

The Starfield 1.9.67 update is the seventh post-launch patch for the RPG. It’s a rather small update and it delivers fixes and improvements to the console and PC versions of the game.

The update, while small, requires a fairly large download. Keep this in mind if you plan to play Starfield today and/or if your console or PC is running out of storage.

With the update now available to download, we want to run down everything we currently know about the Starfield 1.9.67 patch for Xbox and Windows.

Starfield 1.9.67 Update Size

The next time you fire up Starfield on your Xbox or Windows PC, you’ll get a prompt to download the 1.9.67 update.

The 1.9.67 patch adds even more weight to a game that already requires 100GB+ of free space to run. It’s an 2.73 GB download for the Xbox Series X.

The patches for Xbox Series S and Windows PC should be in and around the same size.

If your Xbox or PC is connected to a fast Wi-Fi network, it should only take a few minutes to download and install the update. If not, plan accordingly.

Starfield 1.9.67 Features

The 1.9.67 update is stocked with enhancements and bug fixes for ongoing issues with the game. Some of these changes are exclusive to Windows PC and those are noted in the release notes below.

• Added support for AMD FidelityFXTM Super Resolution 3 (FSR 3). (PC)
• Added support for Intel Xe Super Sampling (XeSS). (PC)
• Fixed an issue that could make the clouds appear to vibrate when using DLSS performance mode. (PC)
• Fixed minor visual artifact that could occur when aiming with a weapon or task swapping.

• Changed how FormIDs are freed when loading saves. This should improve stability for saves that have visited many locations.
• Fixed a crash that could happen when making changes to the ship that required all items to be moved to the cargo bay in the Ship Builder menu.

• Reverted a change that caused the data menu to open when taking screenshots with F12 (PC)
• Fixed an issue causing the resolution scale to reset to 1.0 when switching from Fullscreen to Windowed mode when using DLSS. (PC)

If you don’t see a fix for an issue you’ve encountered in Starfield, make sure you report it to Bethesda so the developer can get to work on a fix in a future update.

What’s Next

We’ll see a stream of Starfield updates in 2024. Bethesda says the plan is to release new patches every six weeks or so.

In addition to new updates, Bethesda will also launch the game’s first DLC, dubbed Shattered Space, later this year. It’s also planning to open up access to mods.

Enhanced Player Heath Bar

> 1 / 35

Let's start with a Starfield mod that's extremely basic, but has a huge impact on gameplay. Enhanced Player Heath Bar is a popular Starfield mod for PC that simply changes the player's health bar color when health reaches 75%, 50% and 25%. At 75% health your player's health bar will change to yellow. At 50%, it changes to orange. And if you're at 25% and close to dying, it will of course change to red.  It's simple, but it's extremely nice at a glance, especially when you're in a particularly tough fight with Terrormorphs or a group of mercs.
