The game, which which takes place between the original 2009 reboot and the sequel Star Trek Into Darkness, will come to Europe and Australasia regions on April 26 of next year, and North Americans will be playing it three days earlier on April 23.

Along with the release date, we now what those eager Star Trek fans will get when they pre-order the game at participating retailers. The Elite Officer Pack will feature some exclusive gear for Star Trek favourites Kirk and Spock;

Whoever has seen the game can’t help but rave about it, it seems. Star Trek fans have been hoping for a decent game that uses license for an awful long time and when Marianne Krawczyk – who was instrumental in the God of War trilogy – is behind writing duties, they might finally get what they want.
