Star Trek Online channels Next Generation’s spirit with Geordi LaForge, skants, and Galaxy interiors

Believe it or not, this September will mark the 30th anniversary of the debut of Star Trek: The Next Generation. What began as a stiff, preachy, and controversial entry in the Trek franchise became one of its most beloved series by the time it went off the air in 1994.

There are always reruns and Netflix to relive the series, of course, but what about something new? This October, Star Trek Online will be launching Season 14: Emergence, the next chapter of its current story ark involving two races coming together to (hopefully) live in peace.

As part of the new featured episode, LeVar Burton will be reprising his role as Geordi LaForge. Even better, before that Burton will also be starring in a September 12th episode that will take place on a Galaxy-class starship eerily similar to the familiar Enterprise-D. To keep this Next Generation streak going, the devs have faithfully recreated the interior of the Galaxy-class including its bridge.

Players are also in for a few free goodies with this anniversary: The male skirts (“skants“) from season one of the show and the Type-7 shuttles will be given away this fall.
