Shattered Space whisks players off to Va’ruun’kai, the home world of House Va'ruun, for the very first time. When you get there, you'll find a massive vortex has destroyed most of the city of Dazra, sending House Va'ruun reeling. The mystery of the vortex and the fate of the survivors of House Va'ruun are at the heart of the Shattered Space narrative.
Luckily, the barrier to entry for Shattered Space is pretty low. All you have to do is complete the intro mission from the main quest, One Small Step, and you'll be able to grav-jump to an orbit that isn't used by a mission or encounter and receive a distress call from a large star station, The Oracle.
But first you have to obtain the DLC itself, which you already have if you bought the Premium or Constellation editions of Starfield. If you didn't, you can buy the Digital Premium Upgrade to get Shattered Space and some digital goodies. Or, if you have Game Pass, simply download the thing. Happy planet hopping!
