Today Star Trek Online welcomes one of Star Trek’s first female captains to the PlayStation and Xbox versions of the free-to-play MMORPG. In the latest console update, Shadow’s Advance, captains will join Terran forces led by Marshall Janeway (Kate Mulgrew, who originated the character in Star Trek: Voyager and reprised the role in Prodigy on Paramount+) to kidnap a person of great importance from Jupiter Station in Federation space. Players will also team up with two familiar Mirror Universe allies, Captain Killy (Mary Wiseman) from Star Trek: Discovery and Admiral Leeta (Chase Masterson), a fan-
favorite in Star Trek Online. Shadow’s Advance follows their story from the perspective of Admiral Janeway from the Prime Universe, who is retelling the accounts of their actions.
Shadow’s Advance also continues the festivities for Star Trek Online’s 12th anniversary, which kicked off last month on PC. To celebrate the game’s original release in 2010, the devs have brought back the Omega Molecule Stabilization mission to help players earn this year’s anniversary ship, the T6 Jarok Alliance Carrier.
A full list of features available in today’s console update includes:
New Featured Episode – In the new episode “Redshift,” players will team up with Marshal Janeway and her Terran forces to capture an important individual from a secure facility.
New Task Force Operation – Today’s season introduces a brand new five-captain space TFO called “Iuppiter Iratus.” Players will need to assemble a team of five and stop the Terran Empire from stealing data from Jupiter Station.
Anniversary Event – Back by popular demand, the devs have released the Omega Molecule Stabilization mission, which tasks players with stabilizing Omega molecules which Q has scattered throughout the galaxy. Participating in this event along with numerous episodes and TFOs associated with Mirror Universe, will unlock this year’s anniversary ship, the T6 Jarok Alliance Carrier.
Featured Star Trek Actors – Star Trek Online is excited to welcome Kate Mulgrew to the game, who originated the role of Captain Janeway in Star Trek: Voyager. Players will also team up with the vicious Captain Killy (Mary Wiseman from Star Trek: Discovery) and Admiral Leeta (Chase Masterson from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) who was recently featured in the last season, Reflections.
Star Trek Online is a free-to-play massively multiplayer online game that allows players to explore the Star Trek universe from within.

Captains can also explore iconic locations from the Star Trek universe, make contact with new alien species and battle alongside other players in customizable starships.
