Once you've downloaded the latest vehicle update in Starfield, head to any Ship Services Technician within the Settled Systems. These technicians are typically located near docking areas, marked by blue "Ship Services" lights. A yellow computer station is usually nearby.
If you're starting a new game, your first encounter will likely be in New Atlantis on Jemison. However, Akila City, Neon, and Mars also have Ship Services Technicians.
To purchase a vehicle, interact with a technician and select the "Buy a Ship" option. This will open the vehicle shop, which now includes the REV-8 for 25,000 Credits. While the availability of other vehicles may change in the future, the REV-8 is currently the only option.
After purchasing the REV-8, it will automatically be added to your ship. When you land on an explorable planet, the vehicle will appear near your ship, ready to drive. You can also customize the REV-8's color at the Ship Services Technician, providing a degree of personalization.
While the REV-8 is currently the only vehicle available for purchase, it offers a versatile and capable mode of transportation for exploring planets. Its rugged design and off-road capabilities make it well-suited for traversing diverse terrain, from arid deserts to dense forests.
As the game progresses, it's possible that additional vehicles will be added to the vehicle shop. These might include specialized vehicles with unique abilities or features, such as a faster speed, increased cargo capacity, or enhanced combat capabilities.
For now, the REV-8 is a valuable addition to any player's arsenal, providing a convenient and efficient way to explore the vast landscapes of Starfield.
The REV-8: A Versatile Starfield Companion
The REV-8 isn't just a vehicle; it's a mobile arsenal. Once behind the wheel, navigate using the forward button and directional keys. But the REV-8 offers more than basic driving. Unleash its weapons with RT/R2, boost for a speed surge with RB/R1, and scan your surroundings with LB/L1. Need a quick escape? Boost jump with Y/Triangle. And don't forget to toggle the headlights with a prolonged LB/L1 press.
With its nimble handling and exhilarating boost jump, the REV-8 is a joy to pilot. While city centers are off-limits, the open world is your playground. Engage enemies in planetary encampments, using the REV-8's firepower to your advantage.
Beyond combat, the REV-8 is a valuable tool for exploration. Its speed and maneuverability allow you to traverse vast landscapes with ease. Discover hidden locations, uncover secrets, and simply enjoy the breathtaking scenery.
The REV-8 is more than just a means of transportation; it's a versatile companion that enhances your Starfield experience. Whether you're seeking thrills, exploration, or combat, the REV-8 has something to offer.
