For immediate release - 6th September 1998 Stake your claim to the Final Frontier with Captain's Log, Stardate 8987.4: Prepare to enter the most exciting Star Trek® universe of all time! Interplay's Star Trek: New Worlds® is the first strategy action game to be created in real 3D, combining cutting edge technology and total interaction with a uniquely immersive gaming experience. Choose to play as an officer in the Federation, as an honourable Klingon warrior or a centurion of the Romulan Star Empire, and develop or destroy the frontier in over 25 unique missions. New Worlds, like no other Star Trek® adventure before it, allows you the player to experience the frontier up close and personal. With no Starship bridges or view-screens to separate you from the action; you must take your rookie crew and construct your colony, mine resources, research the area, all the time preparing for hostile encounters. Whichever of the three great powers you choose to represent, your role as Colony Commander is a difficult one. You are personally responsible for the construction of a viable colony, the development of mineral-extraction mines, the advancement of new research and development projects, and the colonisation of each new planet. Each race brings with it a host of new technology, which develops more as time progresses. New phaser vehicles, photon artillery, and cloaked tanks are just the start of the first ever Star Trek® ground adventure - the like of which has never been seen before. Construct your colonies from a vast array of structures, including Hydroponics Bays, Photon Artillery Launchers and many more, and then watch them as they are literally built before your very eyes, panel by panel. Every structure and environment in New Worlds is fully modelled and texture mapped, and each one will be a 100% accurate model. They don't just look like Trek - they are Trek! As you journey with your crew, they will evolve and grow with each new experience, becoming perhaps your most valuable resource of all. But along with command comes the acceptance of some tough decisions. In a tight spot, will you be willing to sacrifice one of your key colonists to ensure the safety of your crew? Or will you be able to tell between a potential friend or foe? With a variety of alien environments to explore, and a learning curve requiring you to adapt to their unique properties, your abilities will be forever stretched and questioned. Added to these New Worlds will also see your crew encounter 3 terrifying new alien races from the Alpha Quadrant's past. In the face of such devastating opposition, who will stand and who will fall? Star Trek: New Worlds® will explode onto the market as the quintessential Star Trek product - an authentic and truly thrilling strategic 3D action game. Unique features of Star Trek: New Worlds®:
Anticipated for release in 1999 on PC CD-ROM, and developed by Binary Asylum, Star Trek: New Worlds® will offer the challenges and adventures of commanding and building colonies on the frontier, as well as the fears which lay beyond it.
