The Jem’Hadar faction will be unlocked for players to taken on, and will for players to visit the Gamma Quadrant in six new episodes, against the Hur’q. Additionally, you will be interacting with well known members from Deep Space Nine, with the original actors taking on the voice, these include Quark (Armin Shimerman), Odo (René Auberjonois), Kira Nerys (Nana Visitor) and Martok (J.G. Hertzler).
There are also more names still to be revealed, six other actors to be exact! These will be released on the STO's Facebook and Twitter pages soon.
Below you can see the trailer for the expansion.
Deep Space Nine recently celebrated it's 25th anniversary, and in the press release for the expansion, Stephen Ricossa said “We couldn’t think of a better way of celebrating Deep Space Nine, than resurrecting the characters so many fans adored and reuniting this special cast in Star Trek Online,” the executive producer of Star Trek Online then went on to say “Our new expansion pays tribute to the television series that boldly explored important social issues and left a lasting impact on an entire generation of Star Trek fans.”
Players who create a Jem’Hadar character will start at level 60 with a variety of completed Reputations, Specialization Trees, Duty Officer tracks, and R&D progress. This means they will only have to gain 5 more levels to reach the new level cap of 65 in the Victory is Life expansion.
Additionally with the expansion, we will see a new queue, added progression system and all-new Sector Battlezone, a new gameplay feature that takes players into a war between the stars to save the Gamma Quadrant. Additional features included with Victory is Life will be revealed at launch.
Hopefully, everyone is looking forward to this expansion!
