Starfield - How to Build the X-Wing

The X-Wing Project in Starfield

Hey, gamers! Have you ever dreamed of exploring the universe in a Star Wars X-Wing? Well, with Starfield, the latest game from Bethesda, that dream is now within reach. Thanks to the extensive spaceship customization options in the game, some resourceful players have already figured out how to recreate the famous X-Wing. But be warned, this project requires both time and credits.

Iconic Ships in the Starfield Universe

In the vast expanse of Starfield, spaceships are more than just a means of transportation - they are an expression of your personality and style. So, it's no surprise that many players are creating their own versions of iconic ships from other media. One particularly impressive example is the X-Wing from Star Wars, for which a Reddit user has shared a construction guide with the community.

Collecting Parts and Building

Before we can start building, we first need to gather the right parts. A good starting point is the base ship "Frontier," from which you can customize and expand as you please. Most parts can be found on New Atlantis or Jemison, but some will need to be unlocked as you progress through the game. And don't forget: This project will cost you approximately 40,000 to 60,000 credits.

Beware of Name Changes

A small challenge during the construction process is the changing names of the parts - depending on the position of the part on the ship, its name may change. Don't panic, just follow the list below and you'll solve the puzzle.

Let's Get to Work: Building the X-Wing

Once you have all the parts, the fun can finally begin! Start with the NG-6 landing gear and then build the core of your ship. Don't forget to mirror both sides! The weapon attachment comes last, once everything else is in place.

Completion and Test Flight

After successful assembly, you've done it: your own Star Wars X-Wing in Starfield is ready to take off! The most challenging part of the project is probably acquiring the parts, but with a little patience and enough credits, that shouldn't be a problem. And then? It's time to venture into the universe, pilot!

Have fun building and flying!
