If you’re playingStarfield on PC through Game Pass, you’ll see you don’t have the handy in-game FPS counter like you would on Steam. Luckily, I’ve figured out how to access the FPS counter even outside of Steam. Here’s how you may check your FPS while playing Starfield on Game Pass.

If you’re not a fan of the look, you’re able to also opt for a third-party app. The MSI Afterburner app is a good option for many people, and it’ll offer the same tools the Xbox Game Bar offers. It’ll just come down to some personal preference.
How to get access to FPS counter in Game Pass
You’ll notice the first time you use the Game Bar’s FPS counter it’ll say you have to request access to make it happen. All you need to do is click the FPS button, enable access, and then restart your PC. If done correctly, you’ll be able to see your FPS the next time you fire up Starfield or any other game through the Xbox app.
Knowing your FPS is a good way to gauge whether your PC is up to the task of running a demanding game such as Starfield. If you’re seeing a lower number than you’d expect, it might be time to reduce some graphics settings or even upgrade your PC. When it comes to Starfield, it may be a combination of both.
