Wondering which Starfield skills are right for your character? Todd Howard claims that the studio's new skill system "combines the best" from Bethesda's previous games, and we're inclined to agree. These skills are split into five separate paths: Physical, Social, Combat, Science and Tech, and are unlocked through a combination of spending skill points and completing challenges.
While Starfield's release date is only a few months away, it's never too early to start customizing your character for the acclaimed studio's upcoming RPG. After choosing your spacefarer's background and traits, Starfield skills are your go-to for shaping how you'll navigate combat, diplomacy, and survival in the long term.
