Starfield Neon city location, factions, and more

There's a Vegas-like location in Starfield, and it's called Neon City. Also known as the pleasure city, Neon is known for its psychedelic consumption and luxurious culture. It's the only city in Starfield where drugs are legal, so it's no surprise that people flock to this city to experience the pleasure. However, the increasing number of tourists also meant an upsurge in crime, so it's one of the most dangerous and corrupt urban areas in the Settled Systems.

Neon City is home to tons of quests and locations, making it one of the most important cities in Starfield. Although following the main storyline will eventually take you to Neon, you can go to the area directly even before the quest. Follow this guide to learn more about the famous pleasure city.

Starfield guide: All about Neon City

Neon City location

Neon, the city on the ocean planet of Volii Alpha in Starfield, can be found in the Volii System. On the intergalactic map, it is located just below Cheyenne and to the right of Olympus.

To get there, you can either grav jump to a closer star system like Arnae or Olympus. Grav jumping is a method of traveling through the Starfield universe. It allows you to reach distant star systems without the need for traditional space travel. Once you've reached one of these closer star systems, you can make your way to Neon.

Alternatively, you can get to Neon via the All the Money Can Buy mission in the game's main storyline.

Neon City factions

Factions are organizations you can join throughout your Starfield adventure. These organizations have their own unique goals and cultures, and it's important to choose one that aligns with your preferences. There are two factions based on Neon.

1. Ryujin Industries - A mega corporation led by CEO Masako Imada, this organization was once a humble fishing platform but now has massive influence over the local authorities of the city. The faction is headquartered on Ryujin Tower. You can join this faction by looking for a kiosk in the city and applying for the job. This should trigger the Back to the Grind quest, the main mission for joining the faction.
2. Xenofresh Corporation - The Xenofresh Corporation is the faction that built the Neon City. Like the Ryujin Industries, it was once a humble fishing platform on the planet. They were the ones who discovered the psychotropic properties of the fish in the city, which was later used to manufacture Aurora. While details about joining the faction are still unclear, it will most likely involve completing quests and gaining the members' trust.
