The Galaxy of RPG STAR TREK ADVENTURES Is About to Get a Lot Bigger
Modiphius Entertainment Ltd are set to launch the highly anticipated second edition of its acclaimed Star Trek Adventures tabletop roleplaying game. Scheduled to debut with a brand-new core rulebook and an array of expansions, this new edition promises to elevate the Star Trek gaming experience to exciting new heights.
With a firm commitment to honoring the rich legacy of Star Trek, Modiphius continues its strong partnership with Paramount Consumer Products, allowing for the inclusion of the latest additions to the Star Trek universe, namely Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and Star Trek: Prodigy, alongside the vast tapestry of existing franchise content.
The centerpiece of this new edition is the upcoming core rulebook, set to make its debut at Gen Con 2024. This comprehensive tome will empower players to forge their own destinies within the Star Trek universe, enabling the creation of original characters and starships to embark on thrilling adventures limited only by their imaginations. Building upon the solid foundation of the first edition, the second edition refines and expands upon the rules, ensuring a seamless transition for seasoned players while remaining fully compatible with previously released supplements and expansions.
One of the most exciting features of the second edition is its broader scope, inviting players to explore narratives beyond the traditional Starfleet-centric focus. From the storied halls of the Klingon Empire to the enigmatic depths of the Romulan Star Empire, players can now embody iconic species from across the galaxy, enriching their gameplay experiences with diverse perspectives and cultural nuances. With the inclusion of art inspired by the captivating visuals of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, players will find themselves immersed in the aesthetic of this beloved new series.
Jim Johnson, project manager for Star Trek Adventures, shared his insights on the development process: "Phase two of Star Trek Adventures is giving us the opportunity to refine the award-winning ruleset, taking advantage of all we’ve learned and published for the game and for the 2d20 System over the last seven years. And, since Star Trek presented a diverse setting from the very beginning, I felt it important the core rulebook present a more diverse spread of character possibilities beyond just the Federation. You’ll see a selection of fully playable non-Federation species in the core, expanding your group’s gameplay possibilities right from the start."
Modiphius has distinguished itself as the premier publisher of licensed Star Trek tabletop roleplaying games, boasting an extensive catalogue of titles spanning seven years. From immersive supplements to innovative gameplay options, the company has continually delivered exceptional content that resonates deeply with fans of the franchise. The success of Captain’s Log, a solo-play version of Star Trek Adventures released in 2023, underscores the game's enduring popularity and its ability to captivate players of all backgrounds.
Chris Birch, founder and chief creative officer of Modiphius, reflected on the journey thus far: "Seven years ago we set out to tell a new story in the Star Trek universe, and to bring us all together to explore strange new worlds. So whether you’re a new crew coming to the table or old friends, I think you’ll find the second edition of Star Trek Adventures will be the beginning of your own five-year mission with all the wonder that entails."
