The next chapter of Star Trek Online’s Age of Discovery storyline is about to unfold with the release of the first installment in the Rise of Discovery series, The Plausibility of the Possible, on Tuesday, May 14th, and to get players prepped and ready for its arrival, Perfect World Entertainment has released a new lore snippet that sets the stage for what’s to come. The action picks up following the infamous Battle at the Binary Stars, in which the Federation forces suffered staggering casualties at the hands of Klingon aggressors. The now-united forces of the Klingon Great Houses “swept unchecked against outposts and colonies on the fringes of Federation space; it wasn’t a war, it was a slaughter.”
But when the Klingons attempted to occupy the heavily populated hub of Priors World, the tides shifted: The Federation launched a “daring offensive” that caught them off-guard. With the Federation’s triumph, “Priors World became a symbol of Federation resolve and a rallying cry for the Klingon Empire,” stoking the fires of an already-blazing war. It’s here that players’ will join the story as they “journey to the Priors System in the Beta Quadrant and assist the crew of the U.S.S. Buran in mop-up operations following the liberation of Priors World from the Klingon Empire.” What dangers await our brave Starfleet captains as they jump into the fray?
