Star Trek: Resurgence warping to spring 2022
Shortly after Telltale Games announceda game based on The Expanseat The Game Awards tonight, a group of former Telltale employees announced they too were boldly going into an interactive sci-fi story based on a TV show. New studio Dramatic Labs announcedStar Trek: Resurgence, a Telltale-style game about choosing your own adventure in the world of Luke Skywalker and Hans Solo. It looks hella Telltale, and they even have the digital corpse of Leonard Nimoy. But man, theStar Trekstory I crave would be about downtime, not action.

Star Trek: Resurgence - Reveal!
Resurgence is set in the year 2380, shortly after the TNG film Star Trek: Nemesis, aboard the U.S.S. Resolute. We’ll play through a story about two alien civilisations on the verge of war, switching between two characters along the way: first officer Jara Rydek and engineer Carter Diaz. Along with yer Telltale-y decisions, you’ve got yer Telltale-y action and exploration sequences and such. It looks super Telltale-y, probably because the developers are super Telltale-y.
Telltale people at Dramatic Labsincludeformer Telltale CEO Kevin Bruner, Batman and Game Of Thrones co-creative director Brett Tosti, The Walking Dead: A New Frontier co-writer Dan Martin, Game Of Thrones and Minecraft: Story Mode co-creative director Andrew Grant, and Game Of Thrones co-director Kent Mudle. They all worked on more Telltale games than all those but y’know, can’t list everything.
The Telltale of today aren’t the Telltale of old, y’see, they’ve been rebuilt after investors bought what assets remained after the studio collapsed. Lots of Telltale folks scattered all over.
As someone who still rewatches old Star Trek series, eh, I’m not that into this. The Star Trek interactive story I would love to play would be about the B stories and the gaps between episodes.
Star Trek: Resurgence is coming in spring 2022 via the Epic Games Store. It’ll also be on Xboxes and PlayStations. Seeits websitefor more info.
