Starfield Powers Guide

Updated: 12th Sep 2023 by Team SuperCheats

In total, there are 24 different powers to unlock in Starfield, each of which allows you to manipulate the environment or enemies in some way. The Starfield Powers Guide will tell you what each of the powers are and their ability.

Many of these powers you will be able to unlock early in Starfield while others will be a long-term endeavor. Each of the powers is granted by the mysterious artifacts which are found in Temples across the Settled Systems. Once you have completed the 'Into the Unknown' mission which is the third mission you receive from Constellation you will be able to track the temples in the subsequent mission 'Power From Beyond.
