Ubisoft is setting aside even more time for Star Trek: Bridge Crew, its upcoming VR-only solo-play and co-op game in which you and your pals can harmoniously work together or disobey orders as members of Starfleet. The Vive, Oculus Rift, a...

It's hard to believe that it's been seven years since I started playing Star Trek Online, but there's no denying it today, as developer Cryptic Studios rolls out its latest seasonal content update, "Season 12: Reckoning". As per tradition, ...

In the interests of full disclosure, I’ll tell you right now: I’m really into Star Trek Online, and have been for the six-plus years of its life so far. By Steam’s count I’ve logged nearly three thousand hours i...

Normally, it's not news when Star Trek Online releases a new playable starship. After all, over six years in operation Cryptic's Trek-themed MMO has added hundreds of ships to shoot aliens with. However, this is no normal ship. It's th...

Star Trek Online may only have just been announced for its console debut after nearly six years running on PC, but some questions still burn in the minds of veteran PC players wondering what the news might mean for them, and among curious c...

Well, let's file this one under "Things I absolutely didn't see coming," shall we? When the folks at Cryptic began teasing a "big announcement" related to Star Trek Online, I figured it would be more news related to last week's big announce...
