Well here’s something that wasn’t on my Summer Game Fest bingo card. Bloober Team, the studio behind the likes of Observer and 2024’s sublime Silent Hill 2 remake, has unveiled its latest foray into the dread world of horror: a Star Trek game coming next year.<\/p>\n
Star Trek: Shadow Frontier is officially described as a “sci-fi psychological thriller” unfolding on a mysterious – and decidedly hostile – uncharted planet. Our unlucky protagonist is one Ro Laren, seen in both Star Trek: The Next Generation and Picard, who’ll once again be played by Michelle Forbes.<\/p>\n
Here’s the Star Trek: Shadow Frontier teaser trailer.Watch on YouTube<\/p>\n
Laren’s nightmare begins when she crashlands after attempting to respond to a distress call. “The planet is a spaceship graveyard where nothing is as it seems,” explains publisher Paramount. “As she explores the planet’s corrupted surface and crosses paths with other survivors, she must face twisted creatures, a hostile ecosystem, and an entity that seeks to envelop her body and mind.” And behold: a teaser trailer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n Speaking as a fan of the studio’s sometimes uneven but usually interesting stuff, Bloober and Star Trek sounds like an intriguing combination, even if it’s apparently not the first time the legendary sci-fi series has gone horror in the world of video games (that honour appears to go to VR title Star Trek: Infection). We’ll know how it all works out when Star Trek: Shadow Frontier launches for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X\/S, and PC at some point “next year”.<\/p>\n Bloober, of course, has a lot going on right now. Following on from 2025’s sci-fi horror Cronos: The New Dawn, the studio has confirmed it’s also working on a remake of Silent Hill 1 for Konami and a third proper entry in its Layers of Fear series. That’s alongside a number of other games, some of which – including the Switch-exclusive Project M – are being made in partnership with Bloober’s subsidiary studio Broken Mirror Games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well here’s something that wasn’t on my Summer Game Fest bingo card.
