Star Trek Online Turns Five
Star Trek Online is turning five years old in the next few weeks, a major milestone for any MMO that isn’t World of Warcraft or Eve Online, and to celebrate developer Cryptic Studios is holding an Anniversary Event.
The event brings various in-game improvements, including a revamped Romulan story arc, as well as new secondary deflector items and updates for the bridge officer training system. There will also be a new story episode featuring Garrett Wang (Harry Kim) and Denise Crosby (Tasha Yar) from Voyager and The Next Generation respectively.
Star Trek Online has changed considerably since it’s launch, transitioning from monthly subscription based to free-to-play as well as going through 12 major updates and two expansions.

Hi all, I'm Dan 'Nailz' Naylor, News Editor for the site (and I've just realised there's a pleasing alliteration to that). Almost all the news posts you see on the site are either by me or written because I say so, and we try to make them a little more interesting than a regurgitated press release so I hope you think we're succeeding.
Normally I'll be sinking my time into the latest RPG, but I'll play almost anything, with racing games a particular favourite. Owner of a Wii U, I have no regrets purchasing the console, though Smash Bros. hasn't left the disc tray since Christmas.
You can find me on Twitter and PSN as MacShanks, and feel free to hit me up if you have any questions, queries or feedback!
