Activities are small missions that automatically show different quests that you can do nearby, depending on the dialogues you hear or scenes your witness in a certain location.

Be sure to check your Activities tab to see what quests you can do in a new location. These can lead to other Side Quests, interesting events, or just standalone short advantures.

Faction Quests

Starfield - Faction Quests
List of All Major Factions
Constellation
UC Vanguard Freestar Collective
Ryujin Industries Crimson Fleet

It is recommended to take on Faction questlines as they will most likely introduce you to new weapons and armor. In addition, they also have specific missions that allow you to level up certain skills.

List of All Factions

Mantis is the Best Early Side Quest

Mantis is the best side quest to complete early on in the game as you can do the quest right away without having to even complete the second quest The Old Neighborhood.

The quest rewards players with the Legendary Mantis Helmet, Mantis Armor, and Mantis Pack, as well as the Razorleaf Starship which is a great early upgrade to the Frontier!

Are Side Quests Missable?

Faction Quests are Not Missable

It is currently not known if there are any side quests that are missable. We will update this section once we have confirmed if side quests are missable.

During the Dev Q&A, it is confirmed that faction quests can be completed as they are independent of one another. This means that it is possible to complete all Faction questlines in a single playthrough.

All Quests Become Missable After Finishing the Game

Starfield - Do the Main Quest to Unlock New Features

All Side Quests, including all Faction Questlines, can be completed at any point during the Main Story. However, spoilers once you enter the Unity at the end of the story, you'll be in the New Game Plus game mode, where your character will carry over but your quest progress wont.

How to Find Side Quests
