Have you ever sat down with an MMO, played a few quests and thought “I think I could have made a quest better than that”? If you have, and you play Cryptic Studios and Atari’s MMO Star Trek Online, then you’ve got a chance to put your money where your mouth is with the release of The Foundry.

Can you boldly go where no quest designer has ever gone before?

Designed for players of Star Trek Online by Cryptic’s own die hard Star Trek fans, The Foundry is a compelling new addition to Star Trek Online that grants players the opportunity to create their own in-depth missions and share their creativity with other members of the community. The Foundry empowers users with the same tools that Cryptic’s own development team utilises to build Star Trek Online’s engaging content. For the first time ever, players can contribute their own fully developed interactive stories to the Star Trek Online universe.

“The Foundry is a type of tool all of us here, as Star Trek fans, have been eagerly anticipating for a very long time,” said Daniel Stahl, Executive Producer, Star Trek Online. “The universe of Star Trek Online is constantly growing and improving, but now we are empowering users so that they may finally create their own Star Trek stories, missions and memorable characters inside our persistent game world. This is something truly special and we couldn’t be more excited to see what creative fans come up with.”

Cryptic Studios will periodically feature missions created by members of the gaming community. These “Spotlight Missions” will appear on the Star Trek Online website and receive special attention within the game.

The Foundry tool is already live and ready to be used to your heart’s content, just log in, patch up and start creating!
