Overview
- Bloober Team and Paramount Games Studio unveiled Star Trek: Shadow Frontier in the Summer Game Fest / IGN Live showcase on Saturday, June 6, with a teaser trailer and confirmation that Michelle Forbes returns to portray Ro Laren using voice, likeness and motion capture.
- The game sends Ro to an uncharted planet described as a “spaceship graveyard” where she crash‑lands after answering a distress call and must survive an ecosystem and an entity that warps memory and threatens to consume her mind.
- Developers describe Shadow Frontier as a third‑person, story‑driven action‑adventure that blends exploration, puzzles, combat and cinematic set‑pieces while letting players use canonical Star Trek tools such as the tricorder to scan and the phaser to solve problems or fend off threats.
- Paramount and Bloober list a 2027 release window for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC, and the Steam store page is live for wishlisting with preliminary PC specs published.
- The partnership pairs Bloober’s horror pedigree and prior Star Trek VR work with Paramount Games Studio’s effort to scale the franchise into bigger games, a move that could prompt more high‑budget Star Trek titles if Shadow Frontier performs well.
