Star Trek Online Awakening update has now warped to PC

The Star Trek Online: Awakening update is now live on PC, with the PS4 and Xbox One releases coming October 15.

The new update will warp players back to the year 2410, where you will team up with a sentient hologram of Lt. Commander Paul Stamets. Actor Anthony Rapp from Star Trek: Discovery voices the hologram, helping you in your mission to stop the Klingons from destroying the Mycelial Network.

Here are the features of the Star Trek Online: Awakening update:

• Brand New Featured Episode –  Captains hailing from all of the game’s factions can participate in the new featured episode “Beneath the Skin.” Players will depend on a hologram of Commander Paul Stamets from the U.S.S Discovery to safely guide them through the Mycelial Network.
• Five New Patrols – Players can embark on a mission with Stamets and Star Trek Online luminaries like Lukari Captain Kuumaarke to close the rifts caused by the Klingons.
• New Task Force Operation – Up to five players can participate in this special ground TFO against the Elachi, which tasks them with shutting down probes that threaten to destroy the Mycelial Network.
• Mycelial Event – Captains who participate in this special event can earn the new T6 Elachi ship by playing through the new featured episode, patrols and TFO throughout the next month.
• New Event UI – The dev team has revamped the Event UI to make it easier for players to access new special events.
• Patrol Systems – A new tab has been added to the PvE system, which allows captains to immediately enter selected patrols and gain bonus rewards.
• New Starships – In just two weeks, players will be able to purchase the new Cross Faction Intel Science Bundle, which includes the Klingon Balth and the U.S.S. Somerville, a starship first introduced in the Star Trek Comics from IDW Publishing.
