Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown Launches: Developed and Published in Hamburg

Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown launches on February 18. The strategy title comes directly from Hamburg, developed by Hamburg studio gameXcite and published by Hamburg-based Daedalic Entertainment.

Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown will be released on February 18, offering a strategy‑focused interpretation of the U.S.S. Voyager’s journey through the Delta Quadrant. The game was developed by Hamburg studio gameXcite and published by Hamburg publisher Daedalic Entertainment.

The title lets players command the Voyager, while emphasizing decision-making, resource management, and survival mechanics. The “What if?” structure allows alternate developments in comparison to the television series, including divergent crew paths and the possibility of pursuing unconventional technologies such as Borg research.

Manage the U.S.S. Voyager and plan out the best strategies.

The release adds a new entry to the growing catalogue of strategy‑oriented Star Trek games. The game will be released for all platforms.
