This looks like everything I wanted in a Star Trek game! With the exception of not being able to create your own protagonist 😢

[@AceParty]

As a Star Trek fan, I’m sooooo happy to finally have a new and proper Star Trek Game. I hope this is successful for more

[@honeybadger9425]

Yes I’ve always enjoyed Star Trek games nice to have a modern one. Star Trek Bridge Crew in VR very good as well they really should have added a lot more depth to that game would of been brilliant if they did.

[@teemuleppa3347]

im very pessimistic.....because for me...everything i've heard...i get this picture that this is more interactive movie than game.....and i would LOOOVE to get a proper game in trek universe....where i could explore

[@Katie-hb8iq]

@@teemuleppa3347 It's a bit of both. You can explore areas of the ship and do optional things, although not at any time. For example, when you are in the docking bay, you can explore the shuttles and teleporters. You can even do stuff with the engineering tools and parts. You can talk to people, do some quests, play the monitors sometimes. There is gameplay in the game, like phaser sequences or using your tricorder and what not. As Carter, you interact with a lot of engineering things and you do stuff that you see on the episodes. It's not very sophisticated, but you're doing star trek things. You'll probably enjoy it all the same. It would be difficult for a star trek fan of the 90's shows not to enjoy this. I can't imagine it anyway. I would support it because the devs can obviously do more with more money and I think this one is pretty immersive and worth the money as it is. It's not like Discovery and other nutrek is giving a genuine star trek fix - quite the opposite :/

[@allanallen1835]

I'm buying this to support the devs in the hope they will one day ad multilayer holodeck matches based in different times of history just like the old pc game elite force.

[@StarshipCaptainNemo]

@@allanallen1835 I never liked the Elite Force games. Too much pew-pew and not enough story. The last Star Trek game I liked as much was "Star Trek - A final Unity" from Spectrum Holobyte. I hope the Star Trek Resurgence devs get enough support so it will be a pilot of many more games like this. IMHO this is the perfect format for telling Star Trek stories, they just need to continue churning out high quality stories in that format regularly and extend the explorable space and develop the existing characters further and introduce new characters. I think this is completely in the spirit of reviving Star Trek TNG, but using the interactive game medium instead of TV.

[@StarshipCaptainNemo]

You said the environments come across simple or could use more love, but exactly that is on purpose I believe, considering the TNG sets were all painted styrofoam and plywood. I really felt like I was timetravelling back to the 90s TNG sets, which is a big part of the charm this game has for me.

[@robertmandl9326]

This is indeed... fascinating. Thank you for this review.

[@jjuta1]

Currently on TNG Season 3; happy to see Star Trek related video games

[@duedecimal6622]

3? wow so you havent bumped into Q and the Borgs yet, i wish im like you, seeing that for the first time again. "The hall is rented, the orchestra engaged. It's now time to see if you can dance." still gave me the chill.

Thanks for the review, this sounds promising! I'm getting it on release day tomorrow

[@renegeeder]

I would not have known about the game if not for this review, seeing as it's Epic only, thanks!

[@NoisyPixelNews]

Yea I guess they published it

[@PurrsPlace]

@@NoisyPixelNews No way I am touching an Epic game after what they pulled. They would still be stealing if they had not gotten caught.

[@BrokenVeil1020]

This looks like good fun. Was thinking about getting this.

[@chapterblaq]

It's damn fine trek. I beat it a couple months back and have been recommending it to anyone that gives me a whiff of being a Trekkie

[@JohnBachofer]

When I first saw the decision mechanic I as someone who had played Life Is Strange, wonder if this will be L.I.S with a Star Trek look? I can get behind that.

[@MrDowntemp0]

Epic exclusive :P Bummer. Maybe next year!

[@jozebutinar44]

when it will be for sell i didnt saw it in the shop today.

[@frankquither4980]

Is it truly immersive? Does it have a sleaze mode for Will Riker?

[@jonathanperez7638]

how long to complete the game ?

[@ShiftyMoses]

hey just a quick question, can you disable the time limit on the dialogue choices? i get that some things need a fast response, but the whole point of star trek is that whole moral dilemma thing and to be honest i would like to be able to sit and really think about the choices and respective ramifications im making and that time pressure thing just seems counter intuitive to me

[@W00dyCatN00b]

Haven't played but i guess you can pause? Can someone confirm?

[@ShiftyMoses]

@@W00dyCatN00b aye captain, you CAN pause, just seems a little obtuse and not very trek lol

[@W00dyCatN00b]

@@ShiftyMoses imo it would feel a bit weird if there was an intense moment and you just stood the for like a minute thinking what to do but i see what you mean

[@mrspaceman2764]

Star Trek Bridge Commander is probably the best example of a Star Trek game to date. It's got some dialogue choices, you get to be the captain and order crew to raise shields and divert power, control the ship combat directly if you want and it's got Picard for a bit. It's really disjointed and some of the gameplay is pretty questionable. I would love a modern take on that game. This looks pretty good too. Picking it up for sure.

[@wonderrob3225]

in VR with friends bridge crew was the greatest ever star trek game

[@mrspaceman2764]

@@wonderrob3225 I was actually thinking of Bridge Commander but Bridge Crew is an excellent example. I updated my post, thanks

"Terra Firma, so to speak" ... is NOT something Spock would say.

[@ericmooney5740]

What's the price point expected to be? Psn still even now only has a just announced banner instead of a price tag

[@Dorkvader117]

$40

[@allanallen1835]

Needs multilayer holodeck matches

[@Nersius]

Gameplay looks budget bin, but happy to hear that the story and characters are fan approved.

[@wertywerrtyson5529]

Thank you for bringing this to my attention! I had never heard of this game. I’m a huge Trekkie and have watched all episodes of all the series several times over. But I’ve never had a Star Trek game that were as good as Kotor was for Star Wars. I did enjoy Elite Force and Armada 2 back in the day but most games from the last 20 years have been mediocre at best. As someone who’s biggest dream in life has always been to live in the Star Trek world somehow I’m very interested in this. I just wished we got a really well made large RPG set in the universe and the MMO doesn’t count.

[@Katie-hb8iq]

If you love 90's trek, you will love this.

[@allanallen1835]

Elite force on pc was great, check that out.

[@wertywerrtyson5529]

@@Katie-hb8iq I got the game in the Xbox Series X and I’m loving it so far. It isn’t perfect as I can’t help wanting it to be a Mass Effect type game but even for the limited interactive TV episode it feels like I’m enjoying it. I just get the feeling that if I replay it I will be disappointed with how little choices actually matter as I’m usually in games such as this. For example when I replayed The Walking Dead I actually liked the game a lot less because it felt like all the choices I had made were just fake and things turned out the same in the end no matter what.

[@slartibartfast3041]

Actually, the planet scenes kind of remind me of early TNG and even TOS episodes

[@Boredkwb]

Is it short story

[@purefoldnz3070]

this could end up being a sleeper hit with the success of Picard season 3. Cant wait to pick it up.

[@moretoknowshow1887]

Its a solid franchise thats finally getting some single player love(don't get me started on STO). While i'd like to see a major AAA studio take a crack at building a huge world title in Trek universe, this is a great start. Hopefully this gets the right eyes from Paramount on this license, what i'd give for a SNW TOS/Future Disco-era title.

[@ethangraham6035]

this game is great tbh

[@bpe-music]

If only it wasn't an Epic Games Store exclusive on PC...

[@sonic-bb]

there are some things about characters personalities and stuff that really annoys me, as a true trekkie

[@abnnizzy]

I was really enjoying the game, until I saw that trill hate for their parasite... She was really vocal about it and really, REALLY against it. That was something really out of character.

[@user-sz9bx2ty9f]

Il y a deux mamans vampires tu t appel maman loup garou et maman revenant

[@judgedrekk2981]

I literally only saw this on the XB store last night, never heard this was coming out....i wish this was pushed a little more than all the super hyped crap coming out, starfield, starfield that's all anyone goes on about...or the crappy multiplayer games, it'd be nice to see some well this don;t look like the newer shows so maybe there's hope for a good trek story and maybe some eww it's single player keep yer fingers crossed already this game looks better than fallen order as well or what is it jedi exile?? IDC friggin slideshow of a game lol sorry, I'm just tired of all the bad games being pushed but I al glad i looked at the coming soon tab.....

[@Katie-hb8iq]

Yeah, the publisher needed to market this thing more. There was a lot of marketing for it 1 year ago, but people probably forgot about it. For people that hate NuTrek, this will be a welcome change. It's exactly like the 90's shows in the tng/ds9 era. It's really neat walking around the various areas of the ship. Very immersive, even if it's an indie game. The story and characters and decision making are all really good.

[@mcslender2965]

​@@Katie-hb8iqI'm convinced that ppl who hated NuTrek have never seen Strange New Worlds. In many ways it is a true original vision of TOS pilot episode

[@BrokenVeil1020]

The difference: this looks like it has soul.

[@madquest8]

It was fun, but the ending sucked and your choices don't alter much. Dark Anthologies does it better, but this is a good start, hopefully next time you will be able to save characters and there will be an option for a good ending... this one just didn't cut it for me, too downbeat for Star Trek. Overall... 6/10 Also.. no music from the series, could they not afford it? Odd, though the soundtrack is reminiscent of Next Gen.

[@grumpyoldwizard]

Dang. I have been watching Star Trek since it aired, many years ago. I am not quick enough to reliably do QTE's. They ruin games for me with these events. I wish they would stop using the QTE's. I checked your review because I just saw the game was available. I was ready to purchase it but now that I know about the QTE's I am no longer interested. I guess I will watch some playthroughs.

[@dannypoo3281]

I've played a lot of games with QTE's, I can confidently tell you that these are slower and don't require anywhere near the precision that other games with QTE's require. Not even the Telltale games are this forgiving. You can tell that they wanted the player to be engaged in the story by providing interactive components, but not stressed about how quickly you needed to hit the correct buttons. Even in other elements of the game, such as deciding on dialogue, the game is super generous by essentially pausing the game for you to make a choice if you couldn't decide within the "time" requested. This game truly is just an interactive movie. To me, the more frustrating parts were the shootouts and stealth portions that didn't involve QTE's, as the controls are a little wonky.

[@AnaiBendai]

There's no INVERT Y AXIS option so if you need this to play - best to skip this game.

[@MrJohnni9999]

If you own a widescreen then this game is a total disappointment!!!! Black bars all around a tiny window as the highest resolution is 1920x1080... Requested a refund after 5 min!

[@ben_sisko2149]

It's sort of cliché to ask this at this point but I have to do it: is it a true Star Trek story or a woke nightmare like the new tv series? I love ST, but I'm kind of distrusting towards this series since Discovery and Picard.

[@mcslender2965]

LMAO I thought being woke is the entire point of Star Trek? Remember when Kirk kissed Uhura?

[@yeastydynasty]

lol Star Trek has ALWAYS been woke. You should probably stop watching it.

Basically Spock has a glorified cameo. Riker has a cameo. It features a nobody ship. The first officer lady becomes captain. The Hispanic petty officer gets mind wiped. The Asian trill has no real major contribution to the story other than just survive til the end. The main antagonist are the tkon from the star trek TNG episode last outpost. The portal guardian dies sacrificed himself to stop the rogue tkon faction from regaining power
