Less than a week has since Starfieldā€™s latest REV-8 became available across the Settled Systems. With several mods for the vehicle starting to pop out in Creations Club, players have waited a long time for the land vehicle update to drop.

Even so, Starfield fans are having a grand time with the REV-8, with many of them showcasing their driving skills and unleashing their inner Evel Knievel with low-gravity moon jumps and stunts.

Some players have started to utilize the vehicle in many unorthodox but familiar ways. With the REV-8 amping up the action and adventure in Starfield, weā€™ve collated the best REV-8 stunts and shenanigans for everyone to enjoy!

Jumping Craters Are The New Fad

Reddit user u/Wyan69 showcased a terrific moon crater jump that utilized the REV-8ā€™s horizontal and vertical boost while taking advantage of the moonā€™s low gravity.

Some may think this stunt came from an energy drink commercial, but who knows? Maybe Chunks or Terrabrew will send them a marketing proposal featuring caffeine-boosted energy drinks.

4-Wheeled 360-no scopes

User u/feelgoodinc27 must feel good after they decimated an Ecliptic Agent while maneuvering the rocky terrain using the REV-8.

Whatā€™s hilarious about this stunt is that the Ecliptic Operator tried to order the agent to abandon the mission as u/feelgoodinc27 soars us to the atmosphere and 360-no scopes (technically, it was a 180). The enemy is using the REV-8ā€™s laser turret.

Starfield Carmaggedon - Intentional Or Just A Driver Skill Issue?

u/Responsible-Ad2693 posted a clip on Reddit showing them driving through the innocent streets of New Atlantis when, a second later, they may have ā€œaccidentallyā€ run over several unsuspecting civilians.

UC Security then tried to stop u/Responsible-Ad2693 from doing more collateral damage due to their driving skills but failed to do so. While this differs from the first two stunts, driving the REV-8, like playing a certain auto theft game, is considered dangerous within the Settled Systems.

The REV-8 Is Perfect for Hill Climb Racing

The Vasco-approved REV-8 is perfect for hill climbing, as shown by user u/XxTombraiderfanxXā€™s clip on Reddit. Paying homage to Shadowmere, Skyrimā€™s most durable horse who can climb mountains, they successfully climbed a steep mountain with Vasco in the backseat.

Bethesda games seem always to have these charming modes of transportation that can stick to virtually anything.

With the REV-8 Came Atmospheric Flights

Who wouldā€™ve thought that Bethesda may have accidentally introduced helicopters and gliders in Starfield during REV-8ā€™s release? As demonstrated by user u/gogonbo on Reddit, atmospheric flight is possible with the REV-8 if players can access console commands and turn on God mode.

They could glide and hover over mountains thanks to the infinite boost of the REV-8, and Andreja was even on the backseat complimenting their ā€œknack for vehicular gymnastics.ā€ Now that almost every Starfield fan has seen this stunt, itā€™ll only be a matter of time before helicopter mods will be available via Creations Club.

The REV-8 is a fantastic and welcome addition to exploration in Starfield, and many fans now have something to focus on while waiting for the ever-mysterious story of the Vaā€™ruun in the Shattered Space DLC.
