Star Trek Online’s anniversary event heads to console next month

With all of the excitement and freebies surrounding Star Trek Online’s 8th anniversary celebration last month, it had to have been a particular bummer for console players not to be able to join in on the fun. They should have known better: Picard used a mighty PC, not a piddly Xbox, to fly the Enterprise.

At least this grievous wrong will be set right next month when the anniversary finally winds it way onto the Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Cryptic announced that the event will kick off on March 6th, with giveaways and the chance to earn the Bajoran Interceptor.

In addition to the free stuff, the anniversary will also add the latest patch with two new featured episodes and the re-engineering system.
