Publisher Paradox Interactive announced the new Star Trek: Infinite game earlier this month, and today the company has unveiled the first full gameplay trailer for the game produced by developer Nimble Giant Entertainment.
Paradox Interactive has also released more information about the game itself:
Though this game draws inspiration from the iconic Star Trek: The Next Generation, this story isn’t just about one ship.
Star Trek: Infinite puts players in command of one of four major powers in the galaxy: the United Federation of Planets, Romulan Star Empire, Cardassian Union, or Klingon Empire. Each major power possesses individualized traits, stories, quests, and more to make their play feel distinct. Players can send fleets to explore the Alpha and Beta quadrants, manage an economy, and navigate diplomatic endeavors.
“As fans of the Star Trek franchise, we are committed to creating a game that stays true to the spirit of The Next Generation, in both its ideals and lore,” said Martin Cao, CEO of Nimble Giant Entertainment. “Working within these bounds still allows for a wellspring of opportunities. Star Trek: Infinite rewards explorative play, gives players freedom to choose how they respond to the events that unfold in front of them, and provides a strong sense of identity as you lead your empire through the galaxy.”
Whether building the influence of their homeworlds or risking exploration into the unknown, Star Trek: Infinite gives players endless choices and the opportunity to shape the destiny of their favorite Star Trek powers. Fans will experience a game faithful to the lore of a timeless franchise, as they embark on an unforgettable journey through space, encounter new civilizations, and forge a path among the stars.
They’ve also released several screenshots from the upcoming strategy game:
Star Trek: Infinite will be available for Windows PC and MacOS users later this year.
