Starfield Grav Jump Explained

Grav jump allows you to fast travel to different platforms and star systems in Starfield. When you're on your ship, notice the GRV reactor on the left-hand side of the screen. It determines whether you can make the grav jump or not. If there's no power flowing to your grav jump, you won't be able to travel to a different location and get a 'GRAV JUMP PENDING' display on the screen. 

It's best to take power from your ship's missiles or shields and transfer it to grav before fast traveling. Also, if you have unspent power and zero in the GRV reactor, you will still be able to grav jump. 

Grav jump can also help you escape space combat. The more power flows through the GRV reactor, the less time it takes for your ship to grav jump to a different place. 

You may have noticed that grav jump requires fuel, and you can only travel to locations within your ship's fuel limit. Thankfully, you can increase your ship's fuel limit by upgrading its grav drive.
