The Darkness II developer Digital Extremes is working on a Star Trek video game based on the 2009 reboot. Star Trek is a co-op third person shooter that follows Captain Kirk and Spock as they work together to stop an alien race from conquering the galaxy. The video game will have an original story written by God of War writer Marianne Krawczyk.
Star Trek is slated for release in Q1 2013 and Namco Bandai is tied to the video game as a co-publisher. “Working with Paramount Pictures and Digital Extremes reinforces Namco Bandai Games’ commitment of expanding its portfolio to include Triple ‘A’ Western developed games in addition to its popular and well-respected Japanese Franchises,” said Carlson Choi, Vice President of Marketing. “Digital Extremes’ attention to detail, and the collaboration with Paramount Pictures and the team at Bad Robot Interactive will create an authenticity that is sure to thrill Star Trek fans and gamers alike.”
