Who are the Starfield companions? It’s easy to get lonely in the vast reaches of space, but it wouldn’t be a Bethesda RPG without a companion to tag along with you on your adventure. Beyond running through a full list of confirmed companions and crew members, we’ll also explain some of the ways you can recruit them and include info on their abilities.

You don’t have to find a Starfield companion, but there are Starfield traits that offer additional bonuses for having a companion and staying in their good books. Companions often provide an alternate point of view during Starfield missions, and they aren’t shy about commenting on the decisions you’ve chosen – so prepare to be judged for any morally questionable actions. It also goes without saying that they’re also a prerequisite for a Starfield romance. Here’s the scoop on companions in Starfield, along with their character backgrounds and skills.
