In this article, I’ll cover some of the best Xbox mods available for download for the Starfield game.
1) Enhanced Blood Textures
The Enhanced Blood Textures mod is now available in Starfield, just like in other Bethesda games. It makes blood and wounds look bigger and more detailed, with new splatters and wounds on enemies. When NPCs are defeated, it looks like a real bloody scene, making the game feel more immersive and real. This mod is highly recommended for improving the game’s visuals.
2) Denser Animal and Scannable Flora- A GRiNDTerra Mod
Link: Denser Animal and Scannable Flora
This mod adds more non-scannable flora to planets with life, making them feel wilder and more natural. It doesn’t affect vegetation on barren planets but increases density on inhabited ones, creating lush environments seen in the video. There are similar mods available for downloads. These mods enhance planetary diversity and are recommended for installation.
3) Star Wars Aliens
Link: Star Wars Aliens
The Star Wars Alien mod introduces fully animated aliens from Star Wars into various factions in Starfield. These aliens spawn naturally as NPCs in different places and can also be crafted as outfits for your character. This mod adds a new dimension to the game by including alien races, which were missing in the base game.
4) Color Filter Removal
Link: Color Filter Removal
Color Filter Removal eliminates the game’s ugly color filters, making it look less washed out and restoring natural colors. The game feels more vibrant and visually clear, especially at night. I highly recommend installing this mod for a better visual experience. It is one of the best available mods.
5) Darker Nights
Link: Darker Nights
With this mod, the Darker Nights mod makes nighttime and indoor exploring in Starfield more immersive by creating a darker atmosphere, emphasizing the importance of using your torch. Traveling during the day and sleeping at night may become more necessary. This mode added with the Color filter removal mod clarifies visuals, enhancing the overall experience. This mod is a must-have for anyone looking for a realistic and immersive gameplay experience
6) No Angry Companions
Link: No Angry Companions
This mod lets you do more in the game without upsetting your companions. They’ll stay loyal even if you commit crimes or massacre entire towns.
7) StarSim: Mining Conglomerate
StarSim: Mining Conglomerate is a paid mod that aims to enhance the game’s immersion and transform Starfield into a space simulation experience.
This mod adds a new system to the game that helps players interact with asteroids, ships, and stations more effectively. It also introduces a new way to communicate with NPCs, access mission boards, and try out different jobs and activities. The mod starts with a quest from Argos Extractors that lets players become managers at a new mining station. It changes how space mining works, brings in new missions, and includes two new stations: Argos Space HQ and Argos Mining Station. You can also use bulletin boards, check your mail in space, and play a mini-game to improve productivity. Overall, it makes the game more interesting by giving you more ways to collect resources, make money and XP, and have fun in space.

10) Baka NPCs Drop Armor

The Baka NPCs Drop Armor mod allows most NPCs in the game to drop armor when they are defeated. This means you can easily find and collect armor sets that you like to wear by looting them from NPCs after defeating them.
