Star Trek has been around for more than 50 years, shaping the very landscape of modern science fiction across television, films, and novels. Yet, it still seems like the franchise hasn't much explored the realm of video games. There is the massively multiplayer game Star Trek Online, which is still going strong with new updates, but the more philosophical and interpersonal storytelling elements of Star Trek are something that we don't often see in the interactive medium.
That's changing with the upcoming Star Trek: Resurgence, releasing later this year. It's an adventure game coming from former members of the original Telltale Games, creators of Telltale's The Walking Dead, and Batman: The Telltale Series.
