The overarching story features a number of interesting and believable characters and we, as either Rydell or Diaz, are given a number of difficult choices to make. The game’s story is well-written and engaging and if there weren’t so many chapter title screens breaking up the pace, I would have been so enthralled. Using our phaser in combat, scanning with the tricorder, controlling tractor beams and a heap of other operations was great fun though. I can understand if this was a VR game but for a standard point-and-click interface with mouse/keyboard or controller, these interactions could have been somewhat refined. It was far more important about what happened after pressing the button, like taking control of an object, as opposed to pressing the button itself. On the flip side, some tasks can be quite menial and unnecessary, like moving our hands over a screen to get to a button. ![]() We also need to solve puzzles and the game features some action sequences where life threatening decisions need to be decided quickly, where other times you will need to complete tasks at your pace. When we are in control of Rydell or Diaz, the dialogue choices we make affect relationships with key characters and how they treat you further into the story. We can sprint, but sometimes I found this was disabled when in diplomatic circumstances. The environments are beautifully rendered with great explosions and space sequences were fantastic.Ĭharacter movement was initially slow-moving, we interact with a variety of characters on the Resolute as the character relationships are established. It is rare these days for games not to support the higher resolutions, so I can see this as being a turn off for some. There is only a small number of resolution options, and while 1920×1080 is one of the standards available, my resolution of 2560×1440 was not available or any higher than 1600×1200. ![]() The game’s graphics are impressive once you get over the initial frustrations. No doubt hardcore Trek fans can put two and two together. ![]() One is Ambassador Spock who is voiced impeccably by Piotr Michael and is very close to the voice of the legendary Leonard Nimoy, and the other I won’t spoil as it was a cool surprise. The voice acting for all characters is outstanding and believable, but it’s especially cool when you meet key recognisable characters from the Star Trek universe. ![]() You play as First Officer Jara Rydell (Krizia Bajos) and Petty Officer Carter Diaz (Josh Keaton) – two Starfleet officers who are assigned to the USS Resolute, a new starship on its maiden voyage under the command of Captain Zachary Solano (Jim Meskimen). Star Trek: Resurgence has much less combat, but the story is very engaging with some interactive sequences that were quite thrilling at times. I have been playing some Star Trek Online recently and love the space combat in that game which is the best representation of Star Trek ship combat I have played, but the main story is diluted within the size and scope of it being an MMORPG. There is branching dialogue, quick time events and having to make quick decisions when faced with danger, all with full voice acting within a great Star Trek story.ĭramatic Labs is made up of a team of former Telltale Games developers and as such, the gameplay has a heavy focus on dialogue and storytelling. The game is set in the Star Trek universe, 23 years after the events of Star Trek: Nemesis and plays in episodes. It was released on May 23, 2023, for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC exclusively on Epic Games Store. Star Trek: Resurgence is a new narrative adventure game developed by Dramatic Labs and published by Bruner House.
