Starfield Bug Turns Child Character into Adult: Quirks and Glitches Amuse Players Amidst Ongoing Updates

In Starfield, gamers have encountered various bugs, including a peculiar one featuring Cora Coe, the 12-year-old character who unexpectedly transforms into an adult in a screenshot circulating online. Although not a fully-fledged companion, Cora is a beloved character often found on players’ ships alongside her father, Sam Coe.

Similar to Bethesda’s other open-world titles, Starfield includes companions for player travel. Unique to Starfield is the option to staff customized spaceships and outposts with NPC crews. While major companions possess unique perks tailored for specific tasks, Cora consistently accompanies her father, whether he’s assigned to a base or as the player’s primary companion.

Cora, an entertaining character who occasionally offers quests and dialogue options, usually remains aboard due to her young age. A bug shared by a player, ButterscotchUnfair56, showcases Cora inexplicably aging into an adult when interacting with a workbench, likely due to a character model switch during the animation, a bug reminiscent of issues seen in Skyrim.

Despite the humorous nature of the bug, it sparks jests about Sam’s parenting as other clips show Cora in improbable places. The game allows her to join certain quests exploring planets, adding to the anomaly. While Starfield is generally praised for its stability post-launch, ongoing updates target bug fixes and game stability improvements.

The game, known for its vast galaxy, has had its share of notable glitches, but consistent updates aim to rectify issues and enhance player experience.
