Starfield is a 2023 action role-playing game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. Announced in 2018, Starfield was delayed several times. The game was released for Windows and Xbox Series X/S on September 6, 2023. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Creation Engine 2. We test using the Ultra preset, with 100% resolution scale, dynamic resolution disabled, DX12 API.

Once more we see basically non-existent performance differences between the 4080 and 4080 Super when looking at Starfield. Both cards come in 9% slower than the 7900 XTX, or 27% behind the RTX 4090.
