Starfield's vast universe is filled with countless planets to explore and an abundance of ships to pilot. Starfield is the kind of game that can consume a significant portion of your free time, much of which you'll likely spend leaving your mark through the creation of outposts.

If you're not familiar with the concept, outposts are essentially bases, similar to what you've seen in previous Fallout games. You can set them up and customize them as you see fit. They serve as safehouses and storage locations for your resources. The good news is, you can establish these outposts quite quickly.

Let's dive into how to set up your outposts in the game.

How to Build Bases in Starfield

Creating an outpost in Starfield involves placing an Outpost Beacon and activating it. You can place these beacons almost anywhere, but you should consider the threats in the area and whether it's close to valuable resources.

Here are quick and straightforward steps to build your outpost:

  1. Find the Perfect Spot: Identify the location where you want to establish your outpost.

  2. Use Your Scanner: Take out your scanner to prepare for placement.

  3. Aim and Deploy: Aim your scanner at the chosen spot and press the appropriate button on your platform to deploy the Outpost Beacon.

  4. Confirm the Location: Confirm that the beacon is in the right place.

  5. Customize Your Outpost: From this point forward, it's up to you to build and expand your outpost with storage, structures, defenses, and more.

Remember that you can create multiple outposts across Starfield. Just make sure to connect them using Cargo Links for efficient resource management.
