Starfield Crafting & Building Resources - What We Know So Far
In Starfield, you will be able to gather Resources from various sources. Resources are useful for building and crafting, and some are more common than others. When exploring the map in Starfield, you'll be able to preview what resources can be found in abundance on a particular planet.
If you find a planet with something especially valuable, or just a resource that you often find yourself lacking, then it might be a good idea to build an outpost on that planet. This will allow you to gather those resources more efficiently.
Starfield Resources List
Below we have compiled a list of all currently known resources in Starfield. It's entirely possible, and perhaps likely, that there will be several more resources in the game come release.
We don't have heaps of information about the individual resources yet, such as their value, rarity and how they are gathered and used. However, this still gives us an interesting view into the complexity of Starfield's crafting system.
Many of the resources also have a chemical formula, making them easier to identify in the game's UI, and we've included these where applicable too. In a couple of cases, we only know the formula but not the name of the resource itself.
