    Chasing Time — Star Trek Online: Rediscovered Launches Now! Spock Across Eras & B’vat’s Final Threat

    Captains, set your sensors — Star Trek Online: Rediscovered, the landmark Season 37, has officially arrived! A temporal odyssey spanning the ages of Star Trek, this free update is live right now on PC, with consoles following November 10th — and it’s bringing the franchise’s most iconic face from across history along for the ride.

    A Temporal Chase Across Star Trek History

    The new season centres on “The City on the Edge of Never” — a sweeping story mission picking up the trail of missing Lieutenant Miral Paris and the menacing B’vat. Following a desperate final message from the Gateway Planet, your captain leaps through eras, weaving between familiar and beloved chapters of Star Trek lore to track them down and stop B’vat from rewriting reality itself.

    Meet Spock — Through the Ages

    The heart of Rediscovered is the unprecedented gathering of three distinct versions of Spock, each from a defining era:

    • Lieutenant Spock — Ethan Peck reprises his role from Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
    • Commander Spock — Archival performances from the legendary Leonard Nimoy return
    • Captain Spock — Piotr Michael steps in as the veteran leader from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country

    Together, they’ll stand with you across time to preserve the timeline and thwart B’vat’s grand design. It’s a celebration of 60 years of Star Trek like no other — one that bridges generations in a single, unforgettable adventure.

    More Than a Story — New Challenges Await

    Rediscovered packs plenty of firepower beyond the narrative:

    • Know Thy Enemy — a brutal new Space Task Force Operation: step into B’vat’s own holosimulation and face his twisted vision of conflict. Can you outthink the architect of war?
    • Gifting Feature — share the love with fellow captains through brand-new in-game gifting functionality
    • Bonus Rewards — daily giveaways preceded launch, with special bundles and login bonuses to celebrate the season’s arrival

    When and Where?

    • PC: Available now — September 22, 2026 — via Steam, Arc, and Epic Games Store
    • PlayStation & Xbox: November 10, 2026
    • Free-to-Play — no purchase required to beam up and join the adventure

    The timeline is unravelling, the Spocks are assembled, and B’vat’s scheme reaches its peak. Your next mission begins immediately — warp factor 9, captains!

    Boldly Re-Revolving: Star Trek Online: Undiscovered Brings Back The Doctor, Better Deep Space, and a Massive Klingon Bird of Prey

    Set coordinates for 2409, Captains! Arc Games and Cryptic Studios have officially launched Star Trek Online: Undiscovered on PC (with PlayStation and Xbox players joining the fray on July 29, 2026). Part of the franchise’s ongoing 60th-anniversary celebrations, this massive update focuses on rebuilding the game’s roots with a modern flair.

    Whether you’re a hardened Vice Admiral or a brand-new Ensign, here is everything you need to know about the new update.

    The Return of a Legacy: “The Ultimate Klingon” Reimagined

    For long-time players, the early years of STO lore hold a special place in their hearts. Undiscovered honours that history by completely rebuilding the fan-favourite story arc, “The Ultimate Klingon,” from the ground up.

    The premier episode, “The Kuvah’Magh,” throws you into the tense aftermath of four years of war between the Federation and a bitter, highly suspicious Klingon High Council. To make things better, Cryptic Studios has brought back some incredible voice talent to anchor the story:

    • Robert Picardo returns as everyone’s favourite Emergency Medical Hologram, The Doctor (reassuming his role as godfather!).
    • Lisa LoCicero returns as Lieutenant Miral Paris, the daughter of Tom Paris and B’Elanna Torres, who is navigating her complex mantle of ancient Klingon prophecy.

    Expect updated graphics, completely reworked cutscenes, and a much smoother narrative experience that brings 2010 nostalgia into 2026 fidelity.

    Re-Engineering Exploration: Procedural Deep Space Encounters

    Space travel is getting a massive upgrade. If you’ve ever felt that moving through Sector Space lacked spontaneity, the revamped Deep Space Encounters are about to change your mind.

    Instead of predictable spawns, exploration across the Alpha, Beta, and Delta Quadrants now utilises a procedural, repeatable gameplay system. Every time you warp into an encounter, you’ll experience a different combination of:

    • Dynamic mission objectives
    • Randomised enemy factions
    • Vast environmental varieties

    Best of all, running these encounters actively rewards you with bonus Endeavor XP and progress toward the active seasonal event.

    Claim Your Command: The K’Vort Temporal Flight Deck Raptor [T6]

    What’s a major STO update without a shiny new ship to command? By participating in the Undiscovered event—whether by completing the new episode, running Deep Space Encounters, or playing Task Force Operations—you can unlock the account-wide K’Vort Temporal Flight Deck Raptor [T6].

    Seen in Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Lower Decks, this massive Klingon warship is the B’rel’s big sister and comes packed with some incredible features:

    • Hunting Pack Escorts Console: Call in a wing of B’rel Birds of Prey to swarm your targets.
    • Imperial Pressure Starship Trait: Dominate the battlefield under pressure.
    • Rapid Fire Disruptor Heavy Emitter: A brand-new experimental weapon designed to shred shields.

    QoL Fixes and Remasters

    Cryptic hasn’t forgotten about the little things. Alongside the seasonal launch, the patch notes boast a highly anticipated visual remaster of the Sao Paulo variant of the Tactical Escort family. If you own the ship, the model upgrade is completely free. Klingon players also get two new free hairstyles (“Flared and Full” and “Long and Tied”) to look their absolute best while fighting for the Empire.

    Star Trek Online: Undiscovered is available to play right now on PC. Get out there, defeat Ambassador B’vat, and secure peace for the galaxy!
