Starfield’s Metacritic score is continuing to fall in the process of sliding from 2023’s Top 50 games
Starfield can be said to be an enormous success, yet it’s just about to be dropped out of the top 50 games in 2023 on Metacritic.
Already, numerous are saying that 2023 was an historic year in games. Starfield, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Assassin’s Creed Mirage Alan Wake 2, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores and Baldur’s Gate 3, Resident Evil 4 as well as Sea of Stars All within that same year? Phwoar. There are a lot of interesting titles that I’ve never discussed. In our review of our 10/10 review of Starfield the game, we considered the game’s size as “revolutionary” however its incredible size and plot haven’t stopped it from falling into the ranks.
According to the report as reported by ComicBook that the game’s rating dropped to the 83 mark on Metacritic with a number of late reviews beginning to come into. Note that the score is for an Xbox version. It is the PC version is little better and has scores of the 87th percentile. In light of that, Starfield has become the game with the highest rating of this year, and is close to having been pushed from the top 50.
The average score of players in the game stands at 6.6 on Xbox as well as 5.6 for PC. I’d recommend taking both scores with a grain of salt however. Although there’s a valid critique directed at the sport, it’s clear that these scores are influenced with review-bombing.
In our article in our review, we said, “Every now and then there’s a brand new game and it alters our view of what this industry can do. Starfield can be one such game. It’s a far cry from what we’ve gotten used to an open world to be. Bethesda is creating a world that, despite its enormous size, is still captivating and has an incredible concentration on the smallest of details throughout.”
