Oh, and a new ship or something
Indeed,Star Trekfans, the answer that’s eluded us is finally here: Andorian chest hair is aswhite as fresh snowfall.
Now, you could go back to your business, or you could stick aroundStar Trek Onlinebetween today and July 16th, as the game runsits yearly summer event, taking place on the beach resort planet of Risa. As with the last couple of years, the event area features a rotating cycle of mini-games, like races, scavenger hunts, and an aerial obstacle course, that players can participate in to earn rewards.
The rewards include tacky swimwear, jetpacks, futuristic surfboards (including a new one honoringthe late Mr. Spock), theTrekversion of an Evee, and even some gear that might actually useful in the rest of the game, like a “Hurricane Generator”, which is something I figure would be more appropriate to whip out in front of one’s enemies rather than in the middle of a seaside dance party.
And of course, there’s a fancy starship up for grabs, as well. Players who participate in the event for 25 of its 42-day runtime will unlock the Nandi-class warship, a new playable starship patterned after the FerengiD’kora-class cruiser. It’s the first full-size Ferengi vessel made available since the D’kora appeared in-game in 2012, so latinum-lovers seeking the full “armed merchantman” experience may want to give it a look.
