What are Spacesuits in Starfield?

Spacesuits in Starfield are the basic Equipment used by humans to traverse space, in the setting they work as an Armor would providing the main form of damage resistance to the Player Character in the game.

Spacesuits will add to the overall weight of the player, but they are not necessary to equip for Locations and areas where Oxygen is not scarce and players will not need protection from the natural gases in the air. Conversely, players will not be able to explore hazardous Locations, and those wanting for breathable air, without using a Spacesuit and a Helmet.

Some Spacesuits may be acquired as gifts or rewards from different NPCs after clearing different tasks, Activities, and Missions, or looted from Enemies who were wearing Spacesuits before you dispatched them. Some Spacesuits, along with other gear or Equipment, may be crafted with the right materials. For a list of Spacesuits that you have obtained, players just have to pull up the menu and then navigate to the Inventory section to find a list of all the Equipment that they have currently equipped to their character.
