Cydonia (New Game Plus)

Starfield guide · Re-visiting the Mars colony
← All areas in this guide

In New Game Plus, Cydonia serves as a key location to rapidly acquire the Mars artifact during the shortened main storyline branch. Choosing to skip the full campaign allows you to bypass the original extended questline and obtain the artifact directly by speaking with the local contact. The settlement otherwise retains its core services and side missions, functioning as an early stop for gear upgrades and trade.

Shops and people

  • Denis Averin (UC Exchange): Buys and sells standard weapons, ammunition, spacesuits, resources, and general trade goods
  • Jane's Goods: Purchases and sells aid items, miscellaneous goods, and common crafting components
  • Reliant Medical: Sells restorative medical aid items and provides professional injury treatment
  • The Broken Spear: Sells alcoholic beverages, prepared foods, and occasionally hosts local hireling crew members

Tips

  • If you opt to skip the main story at the Lodge, use Starborn dialogue options when speaking with the contact here to avoid doing the mining favors required in the first playthrough.
  • Stop by the UC Exchange and Jane's Goods immediately upon arriving to offload salvage and restock on ammunition without needing to travel into the deeper levels of the colony.

Not listed for this area: items, secrets, enemies.
