How to grav jump in Starfield

To grav jump in Starfield, visit your starmap via the pause menu. Once you’ve zoomed out,select your star system and planet of choice. You’ll only be able to select locations that appear as white dots on the map. Red dots aren’t accessible for one of three reasons: because you’re passing through a star system you haven’t explored before, your ship’s jump range isn’t high enough, or you don’t have enough fuel.

Starfield will tell you what the issue is if you try to select one of these locations, so if you aren’t able to grav jump, find out why —exploring, upgrading your grav drive, and upgrading your fuel tankcan remedy these issues respectively.
