Traveling quickly to your destination

When viewing a map of a system, look for planets with an icon resembling a series of skyscrapers, as shown in the screenshot above. This indicates the presence of a city or settlement. Other symbols may indicate additional points of interest, and three dots over a planet suggest something particularly worthwhile to visit.

Keep in mind that there are limitations on travel distance and routes in Starfield. You can only jump a certain number of light years, and you must travel to systems along a route at least once before you can skip over large portions of that route. However, many exciting locations are situated closely together in neighboring systems. In the early stages of the game, you will likely spend most of your time exploring planets within a few key systems.

To experience the vast world of Starfield, you can purchase the game on Steam and the Microsoft Store.
