Victory is Life is the fourth expansion for Star Trek Online, which focuses on Deep Space 9 and the Gamma Quadrant

on January 26, 2017 on PC and April 18, 2017 on Console. First released in conjunction with the 7 Year Anniversary Event on PC, it continued the storyline begun in Agents of Yesterday: Artifacts with the episode “Of Signs and Portents”, added the Tzenkethi Battlezone, expanded the Alpha Quadrant sector map, added a Research and Development school for crafting kits and modules, introduced the Lukari Restoration Initiative.

On July 6, 2016, Agents of Yesterday is released on the heels of the latest Trek movie, Star Trek Beyond. Agents of Yesterday puts players into the role of a classic 60’s era Starfleet Captain. We are joined by several Star Trek alumni, including Matt Winston as Agent Daniels, Joseph Gatt as 0718, Walter Koenig as Pavel Chekov, and Chris Doohan filling in for the role his father James made famous - Montgomery Scott.

April 12, 2016 just about brings us up to speed. The next Featured Episode, “The Temporal Front”, wrapped up New Dawn’s story and kick-starts the tale of what’s to come. Enemy agents bent on changing the timeline for their benefit are set loose across the timeline, and captains needed help to stop them all.

After the long and treacherous journey of Season 10, it was time for a change of pace. On October 27, 2015, we saw a New Dawn. Starting with the Featured Episode “Sunrise”, this was a post-war story that meant to bring Star Trek back to its roots of the beauty of just seeing what was out there and making first contact. “Stormbound” would follow on November 19,2015 to continue the story of the Tox Uthat.

Season 10.5 brought us another Fleet Holding, the Krenim Research Lab. But more importantly, it introduced the new Fleet Armada system. Finally, fleets could join forces and build an armada to help each other – a huge benefit to small and large fleets alike.

April 21, 2015 saw the moment we were all waiting for. After 5 years and more, we would experience the final chapter in the Iconian War in Season 10. The first episode in this arc started off with a massive Iconian assault in “Brotherhood of the Sword”.

For the first time, players could explore the Delta Quadrant alongside Voyager. During the journey, captains met up with several Star Trek: Voyager actors including Tuvok, Harry Kim, Neelix, the Doctor, and Seven of Nine. This was the biggest casting call Star Trek Online had ever seen!

On Aprilie 22, 2014 Tim Russ returned as Tuvok, now in command of Voyager, and captains worked with him to push back a massive invasion by the Undine. The episode ends with the first reveal of the mysterious and sinister Iconians. These events led to the perhaps inevitable alliance between the Federation and the Klingons.

Season 8.5 heralded our 4th Anniversary. With it, players got to experience a spectacular new episode “A Step Between Stars”, featuring Tim Russ as Tuvok. Players faced off against the Voth and discovered a new gateway to another Dyson Sphere deep within the Delta Quadrant. This led to a deadly conflict with the Undine, and the discovery of an Undine infiltrator.

Before Season 8 was released, we released one of our favorite episodes on October 31, 2013. In “Sphere of Influence”, players joined up with Michael Dorn as Worf. Together, they discovered an ancient Iconian Gateway deep underground on New Romulus.

On May 21, 2013, Legacy of Romulus was released. It was the first time we added a new Faction to the game. It allowed you to experience what it was like to be a Romulan or Reman rebuilding their world from the ashes while facing the threat of the Tal Shiar and a strange and heartless new enemy - the Elachi.

The film Star Trek from J.J. Abrams saw the destruction of Romulus, so we thought it was about time we gave the Romulans a new home. On November 13, 2012, New Romulus was released, featuring a magnificent new Adventure Zone.

At this point, Star Trek Online was in full stride. On July 12, 2012, Season 6 brought us a major new system – Fleet Starbases. Finally, Fleets could work together to build their own starbase and unlock new bonuses, items and ships.

On December 1, 2011, Call to Arms started to set up the modern era of Star Trek Online. First, we saw the first major Skill System Revamp, which simplified and consolidated the original system.

On July 7, 2011, Crossfire brought us some major updates to ground combat, including Shooter mode. This was a major overhaul to the game which can’t be understated. Crossfire also brought us Voice chat, the new ship store, 7 new Klingon missions, and a new First City of Qo’noS.

December 9, 2010 brought something amazing and unprecedented in MMOs to Star Trek Online - The Foundry. The Foundry allowed players to make their own stories and content for the game. Since then, thousands of Foundry missions have been created. Genesis also brought us the first visual improvements to Sector Space, the first crafting set, the Aegis set, and other quality of life improvements.

Season 2 launched on July 27, 2010, and it gave us the first level cap increase to level 50. It was also the first time we saw Mark 11 and 12 gear. For that new content, we saw new missions including the original Undine (Species 8472) arc, a Diplomacy arc, and 8 new Klingon missions including the Fek’Ihri arc.

Common Ground, was released on of March 24, 2010. We adopted the moniker of “Seasons” for content updates to reflect the seasons of a television series. Looking back on this, Common Ground was really a polish Season, and an opportunity to release things that we could not get into the launch of the game.
