Microsoft Corp. shot for the sky with Starfield, its ambitious new space role-playing video game, and so far it looks like a decent bet.

The highly anticipated title, which has over 130 hours of content, arrives after seven years in development. It’s available to advance purchasers on Friday and everyone else starting Sept. 6. Starfield scored a 87 out of 100 on Metacritic, the review aggregation site.
