Starfield is a game for the ages to come. The hype it has created since 2018 is truly unmatched, becoming a household name in the gaming community. Starfield was released on 6 September 2023. Since then, the whole community has been busy playing the game. Bethesda took years to perfect Starfield. And now, fans believe that the game is sure to bag lots of awards in the future.
But among all the praise and applause that it is receiving, fans discover another new feature in the video game. Being an Xbox-exclusive game, the fans found traces of another Xbox-exclusive game inside the new video game. The planet on which Halo takes place is found in Starfield. This discovery has left the fans amazed. And understandably, they want to know more about it.
Halo’s Planet Reach Can Be Found In Starfield
Halo is another Xbox-exclusive game just like Starfield. But unlike Starfield, Halo is a gaming franchise. There are several games under the Halo banner. It takes place on the planet Reach, which can be found on Bethesda’s Space Odyssey. The credit goes to the gaming community who found it while exploring the video game. It is like a jackpot for the Xbox fans.
But the planet is not named Reach. Instead, it is known as Eridani II. It belongs to the Eridani Star System. The planet is almost the same as Earth. It is full of life and has vast oceans and an atmosphere similar to that of Earth. The temperature is also very suitable, and it resembles Earth’s gravity. Eridani II does not require any spacesuits since there is plenty of oxygen for the players to breathe. Players will love that planet due to its resources in plentiful.
Starfield has 1000+ planets to explore, and takes a long time to explore the full game. But players have successfully explored Eridani II. They surveyed the planet and finally found that it is similar to Planet Reach. Starfield is still in its initial stage, but fans think that there might be more easter eggs than just Planet Reach. Twist after twist keeps on knocking at the door.
More On Halo’s Planet Reach
Planet Reach is an important part of the Halo universe. Halo: Reach takes place on that planet. It is a planet that humans colonize, and the UNSC military has set its focal point on that planet. The military ships are built and docked in Planet Reach. Eridani II holds similarities to Planet Reach, but the similarities are to a particular extent. Shipwards, humans, and militaries can be found, but no sign of UNSC.
Halo is not the only reference in the Starfield world. There are references from the Alien franchise, too. The Acheron moon from the Alien franchise can also be found in the game. It is easy to see how hard Bethesda worked to make Starfield. Todd Howard said that the game was a ‘modder’s paradise’. It is no wonder that so many important references can be found inside, and this is only the start. When the modders come into the play, more references will be found for sure.
