Today, Perfect World Entertainment Inc. and Cryptic Studios released Star Trek Online: Season 10 – The Iconian War, a new in-game story arc that begins the conclusion of a five-year-old conflict that has been brewing in Star Trek Online. In addition to the new narrative, Season 10 will also bring gameplay enhancements including a re-vamped sector space and updated specializations all within a free update.
Star Trek Online: Season 10 – The Iconian War focuses on the Iconians – an ancient race that has remained dormant for years waiting for their time to strike – and their dangerous personal guards, the Heralds. As the war approaches, new captains will emerge from Delta Recruitment to bolster forces in defense of the galaxy. It is up to Star Trek Online players to push back the forces of the Iconians. If they don’t succeed, there might be no galaxy to fight for. The newest season for Star Trek Online also introduces two Star Trek: Voyager cast members – Robert McNeill and Lisa LoCicero – who will reprise their roles of Tom and Miral Paris, and add to the already large pool of Star Trek franchise actors.
In addition to the new Star Trek lore available in Season 10, Star Trek Online will also receive additional in-game updates including a re-vamp of sector space that allows players to navigate the Alpha, Beta and Delta Quadrants uninhibited. Players will also be able to participate in additional queues and develop their pilot specialization further as it moves from a secondary to primary specialization.
