Settled Systems: Animated Anthology
New Atlantis: Capital of the United Colonies

The video provides a fascinating glimpse into the objectives and motivations that guide the residents of New Atlantis while setting the stage for the epic intergalactic voyages that players will embark on.
Akila City: Where Hope Endures Amidst Adversity
The second video, Where Hope is Built,
introduces us to Vanna, an orphan who dreams of exploring the stars. But with nothing but a broken ship, her desires are unreachable. The video shows us the terrifying aftermath of the infamous Colony War and its effects on Vanna's life.
As she hunts for repair parts in Akila City, she becomes involved in unanticipated dangers. This video demonstrates the strength of the human spirit. It exemplifies the rich storytelling that will definitely be woven throughout Starfield.
Pleasure City
: A World of Deception and Opportunity
The final video, The Hand That Feeds,

Her acts catch the eye of the pervasive Ryujin Industries, opening the door to a tempting, and possibly life-changing opportunity. The video teases at the complicated web of intrigue and decisions that players will face throughout the game by providing a compelling glance into the shadowier side of the Starfield universe.
