Unveiling the Secrets: Complete Starfield Deep Cover Walkthrough

Despite its shorter main storyline, Starfield compensates with an abundance of side content for players to uncover while thoroughly exploring its vast world. Among these intriguing aspects are the numerous captivating characters that players will encounter, some of whom will unexpectedly lead them on enjoyable side quests that hold equal significance to the main quest.

This guide aims to assist fans in initiating and successfully concluding the Deep Cover mission in Starfield. Serving as the commencement of an extraordinary journey alongside one of the United Colonies' security units and the notorious Crimson Fleet faction, this mission unquestionably merits players' attention and endeavors.

How to Start Deep Cover

Players can initiate quests in Starfield through various methods. One way is by encountering a ship that they can hail. The crew on board may provide the player with information that could potentially lead to a mission. Additionally, in bustling cities, players may overhear conversations among strangers discussing ongoing events in different locations. Furthermore, gamers may also have the opportunity to assist NPCs who are experiencing difficulties, allowing them to extend a helping hand.

Deep Cover is a mission that players often stumble upon unexpectedly, embarking on a truly unconventional journey. To initiate the Deep Cover mission in Starfield, players must deliberately find themselves imprisoned on Jemison. Upon the first arrest, the mission will be activated, and players will awaken aboard the UC Vigilance ship.

Gamers can be promptly apprehended on Jemison for engaging in pickpocketing within the confines of New Atlantis. With UC security guards vigilantly patrolling every corner, any discernable act of unlawful conduct will instantly trigger a pursuit against the player. Evoking a deliberate refusal to remunerate their accrued bounty becomes imperative in order to successfully undergo apprehension.

Upon their first arrest on Jemison, players will not be sent to prison. Instead, they will unexpectedly find themselves aboard the UC Vigilance ship, located on Phobos, the moon of Mars. It is here that gamers will encounter Commander Kibwe Ikande, a member of the United Colonies System Defense, operating under the UC Navy. Specializing in handling the notorious Crimson Fleet, Ikande seeks the player's assistance in infiltrating the fleet to gather evidence against them.

If gamers accept Commander Ikande's proposition, they will willingly embark on an undercover mission to collect additional intelligence on the Crimson Fleet. Following the interrogation, players are required to proceed to the Operations Center to engage in further discussions with Commander Ikande.

The subsequent course of action involves conversing with Saoirse Bowden, located at the Trade Authority in Cydonia, Mars. Reportedly, there exists an opportunity to infiltrate the Crimson Fleet, and the Commander instructs the player to acquire it. Gamers must endeavor to capture Bowden's interest by providing her with a sample of Aurora, ultimately leading to the sale of an entire container.

Prior to embarking on a journey to Mars, players are required to engage in a conversation with Lieutenant Toft. This interaction will trigger the commencement of the Burden of Proof mission, where players must systematically accumulate incriminating evidence against the notorious Crimson Fleet. Subsequently, the evidence must be relinquished to the United Colonies in exchange for a lucrative financial reward.

Regrettably, Saoirse Bowden and the Trade Authority offer little assistance. In order to receive a lead on someone capable of handling the Aurora container, players must provide Bowden with a payment of 1,000 credits.

Following the conversation with Bowden, gamers are required to engage in dialogue with Adler Kemp, a member of the Crimson Fleet. Kemp can be located at the Broken Spear bar.

Kemp is willing to assist the player, but he requires them to address a prior issue: Karl Fielding, a miner, owes Kemp a sum of 3,000 credits. To locate the miner, players should head to Deimo's Miner's Quarters, situated in the residential area adjacent to the community center.

After conversing with Karl Fielding, players have the option to settle his debt and absolve him of any consequences, engage in an attack against him, or endeavor to convince him to take responsibility. Once this matter has been resolved, players must then report back to Adler Kemp, who will subsequently communicate with Naeva Mora, the second-in-command of the Crimson Fleet's leader. This marks the conclusion of the Deep Cover mission and commences the Rook Meets King chapter, which further progresses the storyline.

Starfield is currently accessible on PC and Xbox Series X/S platforms.
