Star Trek Online Celebrates Sixth Anniversary With Events, Giveaways & New Episode

Star Trek Online

Today, Perfect World Entertainment and Cryptic Studios announced the sixth anniversary for Star Trek Online. I do play the game from time to time as it’s F2P now, but before it was my old roommate, who was not a Star Trek fan, plopped down the monthly fee to play alongside me after watching me play and sitting in on Enterprise reruns (he got a weird mix of Trek). What I’m saying is that it was and still is a fun little online game.

As a way of thanking players for their continued support over the last six years, this milestone will be commemorated with server-wide giveaways and the return of the ever-popular Anniversary Event from January 28 to February 24. In-game festivities include a brand-new episode titled “Time and Tide,” plus the return of Omega Molecule Stabilization, a series of mini-games players can participate in to earn item upgrades and an all-new Tier 6 Krenim Science Vessel.

The Anniversary Event takes place from January 28 – February 24 and invites Star Trek Online Captains to meet Q at the Earth Space Dock and First City to participate in a series of in-game missions and events for rewards. This includes the all-new episode, “Time and Tide,” where players will uncover a plot that will lead them to the signing of the Temporal Accords, hundreds of years in the future.

During the Omega Molecule Stabilization, players can collect Omega particles that Q has scattered across the galaxy. These molecules can be stabilized to earn Sixth Anniversary Prize Vouchers by playing mini-games in three different social zones throughout the game. Those who collect 1,000 vouchers during the Anniversary Event period can use them to obtain a Tier 6 Krenim Science Vessel.
