Star Trek: Online - Stormfall features Janeway in the Mirror Universe

Star Trek: Online has launched its new story campaign, Stormfall, which returns players to the Mirror Universe. With new content based around iconic characters from throughout the franchise's history, now could be the ideal time for fans of the movies and TV show to dive head first into the MMO.

Star Trek: Online - Stormfall will focus on Admiral Janeway (from Star Trek: Voyager) and Admiral Leeta (from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) as they venture into the Mirror Universe for a rescue mission. Along the way, they'll meet an Andoran rebel known as "Rae-Yeet" (played by Noah Averbach-Katz, who played the Andoran, Ryn, in Star Trek: Discovery), and come up against the dreaded Captain Sylvia Tilly (from Star Trek Discovery).

The new expansion is broken down into two episodes. The first, titled Blue Shift, details the kidnapping of Ilia (from Star Trek: The Motion Picture) by the Terran Empire, with the player left to rescue her and figure out why she was taken. Then the second episode, The Calling, deals with the Terran Empire's attempts to summon a powerful being to be their ally.

Star Trek Online: Both Worlds is LIVE

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]Welcome to Star Trek Online: Both Worlds! We’re so excited to welcome Nicole De Boer to Star Trek Online, reprising her role of Ezri Dax. Join Ezri, alongside the returning Garrett Wang as Henry Kim and Kipleigh Brown as Admiral Kuumaarke, to face the looming threat of the Mirror Borg. The Borg from the prime universe are a terrifying threat, but these new Borg are stronger and tougher. Lead by the mysterious Borg King, they are encroaching into our universe, and only you can stop them, Captains.

To prepare to face this threat, you’ll return to the Battle of Wolf 359 in our newest Task Force Operation. Face off in a team against a single Borg Cube, in a harrowing contest that will test your mettle, and hopefully give you new insight to battling the Mirror Borg. And speaking of battling the Borg, you may want to get your hands on the technology used by the crew of the Enterprise D in their own battles with the Borg in 2401. You can grab those items and abilities, not to mention the new Duderstadt Class starship, in the Last Generation Lock Box!

And of course, we’re celebrating our 14th Anniversary as a game. That’s an incredible, unheard of length of time for an online game like STO, and we’re so happy to have you all here to celebrate. Participating in the King and Collective Event will earn your progress towards the brand new Alliance Rex Escort. This combination of Dominion and Federation technology will catapult you to the front lines with unprecedented speed and style.

Finally, get into the toughest queues faster with the advent of Elite Random Task Force Operations. Queue up for your favorite Elite Queue, or go Random for more rewards, and you’ll see those queues pop faster.

We’re so excited to spend our 14th year with you, Captains. Thank you for everything, it means the world to the team at Star Trek Online.
