Publishers Broken Mirror Games and Viacom International Inc., and VR developer Played With Fire officially announced their upcoming title Star Trek: Infection at gamescom 2025. Star Wars: Infection is an intense full-body VR, narrative survival experience set in the Star Wars universe, and it is slated for a 2025 release on Meta Quest 3, 3S, and Steam VR.
Check out the official Release Date Trailer for Star Trek: Infection:
In Star Trek: Infection, you play as a Vulcan Starfleet officer who is tasked with a covert mission aboard the U.S.S. Lumen, where things quickly spiral into a psychological and physical nightmare. Upon your arrival on the ship, you find that the crew is missing, and the ship is empty. However, something sentient and sinister has not only taken hold of everything, but it is also inside you now, and it is mutating you physically. With this being inside your body, you will eventually start unlocking powerful and dangerous new abilities at the cost of your renowned Vulcan mind and composure.
Key features of Star Trek: Infection are detailed as:
Tend to Your VR Body: Inhabit a full-body avatar in VR as an alien organism mutates your physical form. Keep an eye on your condition, deciding whether to treat or cultivate the mutations.
- Fight or Embrace the Infection: The infection is changing more than your appearance. Your renowned Vulcan composure is showing cracks while your signature telepathy is being altered, all while unlocking new but unstable powers. It’s up to you to juggle your mutations, learning to manage or exploit the side effects.
- Face Horrors in Your Mind: Your sanity is faltering. Traumatic memories buried long ago are being resurfaced, against your will. Shadows move where they shouldn’t. It’s as if something in the ship is learning your fears and using them against you.
- Set Phasers to Stun & Scan for Life: Use your phaser or rely on stealth and your iconic Vulcan nerve pinch to silently take down threats. Use your tricorder to scan for dangers and uncover vital resources.
- Get Your Hands Dirty: Use your VR hands to interact with the ship. Use tools and workstations to physically craft items and gadgets
