The Terran Armada DLC was released in April 2026 alongside the Free Lane update in Starfield. This new content adds a fresh faction to the Settled Systems, introduces a new companion, and features a new style of space combat.
To begin your adventures with Delta and participate in incursions using powerful weapons, you’ll need to buy the DLC and start the new quest by tuning into a special broadcast. If you’re having difficulty activating this content, you’re not alone. Here’s what you need to know about how to start the Terran Armada DLC.
How to Trigger the Terran Armada DLC Quest
The Terran Armada DLC costs $9.99 and is available for anyone who already owns Starfield. After purchasing, restart your game if needed, and ensure you’ve completed the first quest at the Lodge. This is necessary whether you’re playing for the first time or in New Game+.
Travel to either Akila City or New Atlantis and locate the SSNN Broadcasting Terminal. In Akila City, it’s to the left of The Rock, and in New Atlantis, it’s in the Commercial District near the coffee shop.
Stand at the SSNN Broadcasting Terminal until it broadcasts an announcement about a luxury liner called Opulence Of The Stars, which has been hijacked by the Terran Armada in the Nirvana System.
Once you hear the announcement, the quest will activate. Head to Nirvana I to join the search party. When you arrive, Agent Yemoja will contact you and brief you on the situation. Use Cruise Mode to reach Nirvana IV and search the area.
Explore each storm marked by blue quest markers until you find the missing starliner. When close, dock with the ship to start the first of the Terran Armada quests exclusive to this DLC.
