Starfield is a game that can absorb countless hours of your time without forcing you to take more than a couple of steps down the beaten path. It is a game intended to be explored, absorbed, and experienced. That doesn’t mean you should completely ignore the main quest, however. Nestled deep within its tedious walls is a neat addition to the gameplay, Powers.
Powers in Starfield come out of left field and forever warp your perception of the game and its universe. What was once a fairly grounded game, suddenly shifts towards something altogether different, and we love it. In this article we are going to go over all 24 Powers in Starfield, and how to unlock them.

What Are Powers In Starfield
Powers are unblocked by completing the ‘One Small Step’, ‘The Old Neighbourhood’, and ‘Into The Unknown’ quests. We have complete guides on all of these quests if you need help getting through them. In short, however, once you complete ‘Into The Unknown’ you will gain space magic, and it’s pretty darn awesome.
You can activate your selected power by pressing LB+RB.
How To Unlock Powers
Your first power is unlocked simply by completing the aforementioned quests. If you want to gain more powers, you are going to have to find more Artefacts for Constellation. This is as simple as completing more quests to unlock a power-based quest. There’s not much more to it than that.
Do more quests, and get more powers. Simple.
