In September 2020, Microsoft announced its acquisition of the parent company of Bethesda Game Studios, Zenimax, for $7.5 billion. These include histories, backstories, and starship architecture Howard further said, "We've been talking about it for a decade, we started putting things on paper five, six years ago, and active development was from when we finished Fallout 4, so two and a half, three years." Bethesda maintains its own internal wiki for Starfield, to which all of their employees have access. Todd Howard confirmed that Starfield has moved out of pre-production and is in a playable state. The game, however, was not formally announced until E3 2018 alongside The Elder Scrolls 6. Starfield was originally trademarked on the 13th September 2013.
