STAR TREK ONLINE releases a new chapter, "Stormfall," today
JUNE 22, 2022 - A diabolical threat from the Mirror Universe has been challenging players of Star Trek: Online since last autumn, and as of today players of the MMORPG on Xbox and Playstation will be able to enjoy the latest chapter of the “Terran Gambit” storyline, this according to a press release from Gearbox Publishing.
The new chapter “Stormfall” sees players team up with Marshal Janeway and Admiral Leeta (voiced by Kate Mulgrew and Chase Masterson, respectively) to battle a threat from Captain Killy (voiced by Mary Wiseman), who seeks to harness a powerful destructive force with deep roots in Star Trek lore. The fate of multiple universes hangs in the balance in the new episodes “Blueshift” and “The Calling,” which can be accessed by Captains playing in all of the game’s various factions.
Captains who play through the new Mirror Universe content will also find an exciting reward in the “Heart of the Storm” Special Event, which will unlock a four-piece Kuumarke Visionary Ground Set. “Stormfall” also brings a major upgrade to the main Starfleet tutorial for STO, which Gearbox says, “will not only provide aspiring Captains with a smoother starting experience, but also adds new upgraded environments and even more interaction with the Borg and Admiral Janeway.” As an added bonus, players will also have access to “Forged in Fire,” a rebuild of the fan-favorite TFO “The Assault on Terok Nor.”
