Star Trek Resurgence, the new narrative adventure from developer Dramatic Labs, has been delayed to April 2023.

The news was announced via Twitter, where the reason given for the delay is to “give the game a final coat of polish, and create a truly immersive Star Trek experience”.

The statement also reads:

“Our love and admiration for Star Trek is instrumental to this decision. We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished so far, and this continues to be a passion project for everyone here. We are incredibly grateful – and excited – to be able to work within a universe that means so much to so many. We can’t wait for you to see it all and look forward to taking you on an adventure unlike any Star Trek game that’s come before.”

Star Trek Resurgence is an interactive narrative video game that tells an original story set in the era shortly after the events of Star Trek The Next Generation. Stationed aboard the U.S.S. RESOLUTE, players will assume the role of two principal characters, First Officer Jara Rydek and Engineering Crewperson Carter Diaz, as they unravel a sinister mystery involving two alien civilizations on the brink of war. Throughout the game, players will immerse themselves in the Star Trek universe, interacting with new and returning characters through a variety of dialogue and action gameplay to determine the course of the story.

Star Trek Resurgence was originally announced during The Game Awards 2021. It’s coming to PlayStation, Xbox and PC.
