It’s already received a number of large updates, but the free-to-play MMORPG Star Trek Online has now got another – are you able to prove yourself as an Agent of Yesterday?
Available today on Xbox One and PS4, Agents of Yesterday is the third official expansions for Star Trek Online, giving players the opportunity to participate in new task force missions, fly classic era-appropriate Starships and explore episodic story content, all inspired by the television series that started it all.
All timelines and universes begin to collide when enemies threaten to destroy the past during Agents of Yesterday, calling for the recruitment of Star Trek Online’s bravest to become Temporal Agents and protect the Federation. You’ll get the chance to create a new captain from Star Trek: The Original Series, before commanding one of several 23rd Century Starships and exploring nostalgic locations taken directly from the television show.
The expansion also features a cast of characters voiced by beloved Star Trek actors, including Chekov (Walter Koenig), Scotty (Chris Doohan, son of James Doohan), Temporal Agent Daniels (Matt Winston), Admiral Leeta (Chase Masterson) and Cyborg Crewman 0718 (Joseph Gatt).
