It’s a fun dynamic to see Rydek and the bridge crew make decisions, then watch Diaz and Edsilar rise to the occasion to see those plans to fruition. If the bridge crew is the brain of the ship, Diaz and Edsilar are often the player’s hands in the game, scurrying around Jeffries tubes and wrenching wall panels open, trying to keep the Resolute functioning well enough to meet the demands of the senior officers. He works in engineering with his closest friend, Nili Edsilar, an un-joined Trill who is perfectly happy remaining that way. As the new blood coming in to replace her deceased predecessor, Rydek has a lot to prove to gain acceptance of the captain and crew alike - all of whom are still reeling from recent losses.īelow decks, Petty Officer Carter Diaz is a wide-eyed charmer with a crooked smile. Resolute, a newcomer among a crew that was recently traumatized when a warp experiment went awry, causing major damage to the ship. Jara Rydek is the new first officer aboard the U.S.S. The sprawling story – which has enough twists and turns to fill a ten-episode season – focuses on two primary characters, while still finding the time to build out the rest of the crew. Sometimes you gotta shoot dudes out of the way to access the terminal you need, is all I’m saying, and while Star Fleet doesn't pick fights it is more than capable of finishing them.
But science and discovery are the driving force here, with conflict only taking place to clear the way for more intellectual pursuits. The game spends far more time on interpersonal relationships, diplomacy, and “teching the tech” than it does on space battles and phaser fights – though those elements do come into play as well. Like that golden DS9/Voyager era of Star Trek, Resurgence focuses on what makes the franchise great. Star Trek: Resurgence takes place in the post-Next Generation era of Starfleet, during the time before Spock vanished into a time warp, while Riker was still buzzing sassily around on the U.S.S.

I daresay that they respect and follow the rules of the franchise more than some of the folks behind certain early seasons of recent Paramount Plus television series (cough, Picard S1&2, cough). The people that made this game clearly know Star Trek. Though Star Trek: Resurgence is in somewhat rough shape technically, I can set all of that aside for a few moments and simply celebrate the heart of what Dramatic Labs has delivered here: perhaps the greatest Star Trek video game to date, at least in terms of understanding and respecting what makes the franchise so beloved. The outcome is positive for the most part, Resurgence lives up to my hopes and expectations, delivering a fantastic, epic Star Trek story featuring a great new cast and crew. Dramatic Labs, a new development house started by a cohort of ex-Telltale luminaries, aimed high when it chose to take on one of entertainment’s most storied franchises for its first release. (Naturally, he begins by being as annoyed with you as a Vulcan can get for being “almost” late to your shift.As a lifelong Star Trek fan, I have been anxiously awaiting Star Trek: Resurgence since I first caught wind that the game was under development. Commander Chovak summons you, as Carter Diaz, along with your friend and lower-deck colleague Edsilar, down to suit up in order to walk out on the hull and investigate the bizarre space anomaly the ship finds itself adjacent to.
Bruner told me that the physically biggest sections of the game are where you're on alien worlds and in alien ships, so you won’t be confined to your Starfleet vessel the entire game. Resolute starship your two playable characters call home. The team tells me that many areas of the ship are being modeled for the player to roam when there are scenes set there, from the bridge to engineering to the shuttle bay and many others. But as for that narrative itself, there is yet another key difference between what Dramatic Labs is doing with Resurgence and what the Telltale teams did with their games: offering the player more exploratory freedom.
