Akila City (New Game Plus)

Starfield guide · Re-visiting the Freestar capital
← All areas in this guide

Re-visiting Akila City in New Game Plus allows you to use your Starborn knowledge to streamline major quests, such as resolving the GalBank hostage standoff instantly through unique dialogue. You can swiftly bypass steps in the Freestar Rangers faction questline or the main quest's artifact search at the Empty Nest. Aside from alternate dialogue choices and foreknowledge skips, the city's standard vendors, side missions, and faction recruitments remain fully accessible.

Shops and people

  • Rowland Arms: Ballistic firearms, energy weapons, and ammunition
  • Shepherd's General Store: General goods, basic apparel, aid items, and resource crafting components
  • Hitching Post: Bounty terminal, mission board, and basic drink or food provisions
  • The Rock: Freestar Rangers mission board offering combat and rescue assignments across the Freestar Collective

Tips

  • During "Job Gone Wrong" at the GalBank entrance, use the [Starborn] dialogue option over the intercom with the bank robbers to end the standoff immediately without firing a shot.
  • When hunting for the artifact with Sam Coe at the Empty Nest, select the Starborn conversation options with Jacob Coe to retrieve Solomon's map instantly without needing persuasion, lockpicking, or distractions.
  • You can recruit Sam Coe as a companion far more quickly by using Starborn dialogue prompts to cut through his family background discussions.
