So what will be in Star Trek: Online “Age of Discovery”  

  • Players will get the chance to increase their reputations to Tier 6, this will unlock new powers and skills, along with these new powers, players will receive some pretty good rewards for their time and effort, every time you reach Tier 6 in a reputation players will be awarded a Fleet Ship Module and a Captain Skills Retrain Token, per Reputation that you get to Tier VI, this means you will be able to claim, 12 Fleet Ship Modules and 12 Captain Skills Retrain Tokens (once per character).
  • A new starting experience, where you will be able to create a Discovery Era Starfleet character. Choose from a few Discovery era races, head out into space on a Malachowski-class Starship.
    • Two of the episodes that make up part of this new experience are:
      • Secrets” – “A Klingon raiding party attacked a Starfleet research facility near the Delta Volanis Cluster, but left survivors and took nothing.”
      • Downfall” – “You were just a cadet, stepping out into the cosmos for the first time when the Klingon War broke out. Now it’s come home. In “Downfall,” the second episode of Age of Discovery, you’ll find yourself standing in defence of Starbase One, in what could be her final battle.” 
  • A new PvE mission – The Defense of Starbase One! – “In the 2250s, one of the most pivotal battles of the Klingon War was the Defense of Starbase One. Now, Captains in Star Trek Online will have the opportunity to experience that battle firsthand” 
  • A New PvE Queue system in the form of a rebrand and rework – “Random Task Force Operations!” Random Task Force Operations are just as they sound, these are a mix of Ground and Space PvE maps and unlike before you will not know what they are until you enter the match, so get your builds ready for this crazy new randomness. 

In addition to this instalment of “Age of Discovery”, this expansion will continue all the way through until the 9th year anniversary and beyond.
