In this early mission, captains will navigate a sector inspired by the legendary pilot episode “Caretaker”.

True to Starfleet’s spirit of exploration and survival, Star Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown combines ship and crew management, unpredictable encounters, and tough command decisions. Players will set warp vectors, balance scarce resources, and determine when to hold to Starfleet protocol - and when survival demands something bolder.

This demo represents a non-final build, focused on core gameplay. Final audio, including voice-over and score, will be added later.

The mission begins now — download the demo, engage at warp, and lead your Voyager home.

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 invites players to relive—and redefine—the legendary starship’s journey back to earth. The game blends exploration, ship & resource management, roguelite elements, and meaningful choices. Experience crew dynamics and a fresh take on a beloved sci-fi universe — with what-if scenarios that open up new possibilities.

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.

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.
