After decades of TV, movies, cartoons, and books, Star Trek fans finally got an online game today, and over one million players have already signed up. In the game, players start out as a Starfleet officer, choosing specialties such as science, engineering, or tactical. The players can then progress to become a starship captain. You can fight other players in fleet battles or beam down to planets to conduct missions with Away Teams on the ground.

The game is set in the year 2409, about 30 years after the storyline of Star Trek Nemesis, and follows canon of the original Star Trek, including the events of the Kirk-Spock era, the events of Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager, and Star Trek: Enterprise. Leonard Nimoy, who played Spock, provides the voice narration, and Zachary Quinto, who played Spock in the Star Trek film in 2009, provides the voice of the game’s Emergency Medical Hologram tutorial character.

The game costs $50, plus $12.99 to $14.99 a month for a subscription, and is rated T for teens 13.
