Outright Games reveals new details and gameplay trailer for upcoming Star Trek: Prodigy: Supernova
MAY 19, 2022 - In a special live event Thursday morning, publisher Outright Games, in partnership with award winning developer, Tessera Studios, Paramount Consumer Products and Nickelodeon, revealed gameplay footage and new details about their upcoming game, Star Trek: Prodigy: Supernova.
The Star Trek franchise’s first ever family-friendly game aimed at younger players, Star Trek: Prodigy: Supernova tells the tale of the U.S.S. Protostar crew, from the hit series Star Trek: Prodigy, as they go on a real, Trek-style adventure:
“After the U.S.S. Protostar picks up strange readings from a dying star, Dal and Gwyn must race against time to save their friends, their ship, and an entire planetary system before a supernova destroys them all! Using their unique skills to overcome ingenious puzzles, endure hostile environments and battle deadly robot armies, Dal and Gwyn must save their captured crewmates Jankom Pog, Rok-Tahk, Zero and Murf. But they soon encounter a deadly new enemy, one that will stop at nothing to destroy the U.S.S. Protostar and change the very course of history!”
Players can choose to play as either Dal (voiced by Brett Gray) or Gwyn (voiced by Ella Purnell), either in solo mode or two-player local cooperative mode. The rest of the Protostar crew is confirmed to be making an appearance in the game as well, with Rylee Alazraqui as Rok-Tahk, Angus Imrie as Zero, Jason Mantzoukas as Jankom Pog and and Dee Bradley Baker as Murf. Kate Mulgrew also returns to the franchise as the iconic Captain Kathryn Janeway.
Together, the crew will explore the beautiful alien worlds of Orisi, Mirios and Taresse, each with its own hostile environments, puzzles, challenges and mysteries. They’ll make first contact with new species, and collect items that you can use to customize your Protostar.
Terry Malham, CEO of Outright Games, said of the game, “We’re sure that Star Trek Prodigy: Supernova will give young players a great first taste of the expansive Star Trek universe, and older fans will enjoy exploring this latest interactive installment of the franchise.” In addition to Star Trek, Outright Games also announced new licensed titles for PAW Patrol, Dreamworks’ Dragons, LOL Surprise! and DC’s Justice League at their live event.
Star Trek: Prodigy: Supernova will be available worldwide this October for PlayStation 4®, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch™, Xbox One, Xbox X|S, Steam and Stadia for $39.99 / £34.99 / €39.99. The game is provisionally rated 7+.
