Now available, the first DLC “Delta Chronicles” presents five new side missions based on some of the series’ most memorable episodes – Distant Origin, The Omega Directive, Cold Fire, Homestead and Inside Man – each with the branching decisions and meaningful consequences that define the base game, allowing players to choose different outcomes than in the show.

About Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown
Set aboard the U.S.S. Voyager and deep in the unexplored reaches of the Delta Quadrant, Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown is a narrative-driven survival strategy game that invites players to relive and redefine the legendary starship’s journey back to Earth. The game blends exploration, ship and resource management, roguelike elements, and meaningful choices. Experience crew dynamics and a fresh take on a beloved sci-fi universe through what-if scenarios that open new possibilities.
In Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown, players take command of the U.S.S. Voyager as it traverses 12 vast sectors of the Delta Quadrant. Along the way, they’ll manage systems and crew, engage in diplomacy, navigate difficult moral decisions, and face the unknown. Familiar faces return, but their fates may differ, reshaped by the captain on the bridge.
Player decisions shape both the fate of the crew and the configuration of the U.S.S. Voyager itself. With each playthrough, the ship becomes a different version of itself, reengineered and reimagined based on the path taken through the quadrant and the command decisions made along the way.
With the development team continuously expanding the experience through free updates and new content, no two voyages through the Delta Quadrant will ever be quite the same.
Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space.
