This year is the 25th anniversary of the film Galaxy Quest, an homage to the Star Trek franchise and fandom. Now the Star Trek: Fleet Command game is introducing a new Galaxy Quest story arc with exclusive missions, character unlocks, and special in-game awards.
Never give up, never surrender in Fleet Command
This morning Fleet Command publisher Scopely announced Thermians and Trek fans are set to unite for an “extraordinary crossover event that brings Galaxy Quest’s iconic characters and thrilling adventures to the expansive universe of Star Trek Fleet Command.” The crossover launches today and promises to deliver “a captivating blend of humor, nostalgia, and epic space battles.”
Here is the synopsis of the event:
In these new challenges, Galaxy Quest’s “Jason Nesmith” inadvertently sends the NSEA Protector and her crew hurtling through the space-time continuum, launching themselves into the Star Trek Fleet Command universe. Soon attacked by the Fatu-Krey and Orion vessels, their attempt to return home using the Omega 13 device instead sends them back in time, where they meet the captain of the USS Enterprise, James T. Kirk.

“For more than five years, Star Trek Fleet Command has been the ultimate destination for avid fans to immerse themselves in the Star Trek universe and connect with other fans around the world,” said Scopely’s Fleet Command General Manager Conor Crowley in a statement. “In this newest collaboration with ‘Galaxy Quest’ we’re bringing something entirely new to our players that pays homage to Star Trek fandom in a hilarious way, while staying true to the spirit of both franchises.”
