Starfield Futurama spaceship guide: Parts, colors, and more

Starfield has arrived after a very long wait. The game steps back from the established lore and universe of Fallout and Elder Scrolls to deliver a new role-playing experience set in a sprawling universe. You are given the freedom to explore multiple planets. However, instead of just being able to fast-travel between pre-determined stations, you can fly a spaceship to get from one celestial body to another.

To add to the space-faring element of the RPG, Bethesda has given players the chance to design their own spacecraft. The title offers a wide selection of ship components that allow you to build a ship that fits your wants and needs.

You can build a large and durable spaceship for hauling massive cargo or a quick ship that relies on agility and maneuverability for combat. Alternatively, you can copy the design of a famous spacefaring vessel from a different established universe. One example is the Planet Express ship nicknamed Old Bessie from Futurama.
