You might be wondering how to reach Earth in Starfield. The game itself is set 300 years in the future, a time when humanity has colonized far-flung star systems. Our people have left our home planet behind, though you can certainly return to it. Please be reminded that this guide does contain spoilers.

How to reach Earth in Starfield

To reach Earth in Starfield, you’ll need to unlock the fast travel mechanic so you can travel to the Sol system. Here’s a quick summary:

• Fast travel is unlocked early in the campaign, and the game opens up once you arrive in New Atlantis in the Alpha Centauri system.
• The Sol system is just a stone’s throw away from Alpha Centauri, so you can power up your grav drive to reach it.
• Once there, select the Earth and pick a landing site.
