Set in the 25th century, 30 years after the events of "Star Trek: Nemesis", "Star Trek Online" will become the first massively multiplayer online role-playing game within the "Star Trek" franchise.
Jack Emmert, Cryptic chief creative officer, said players will be able to play "Star Trek Online" as the captain of a 'Starfleet' or 'Klingon Empire' ship, customizing characters or creating new races.
"You'll venture through space exploring new civilizations and life-forms," said Emmert.
"You'll also beam down to planets and have adventures inside your ship. It's a galactic-wide game. There's going to be tons of space to investigate. We have a great system for exploration, which will allow for almost infinite possibilities."
