Star Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown is getting ready for warp speed with a new combat deep dive trailer, and they've announce a release for February 18th.
Just so you don’t get disappointed, this is a far different game from Stellaris. It’s a “linear but with permutations” story-based game that has some management elements to it. But they’ve very openly stated that they’re a small team and this is not a 4X.
Star Trek Infinite (Steam Link) was a sort of Stellaris spin-off (same engine, same basic play method) that was apparently not bad, but not as good as the existing Star Trek mods for actual Stellaris. There were apparent plans for developing it further, DLCs etc but it got abandoned almost immediately and bugs remain unfixed.
I wasn’t aware of the Stellaris mods at the time I grabbed Infinite, but I have to say that I honestly don’t mind dipping into it from time to time. I guess there’s bugs and balance issues and whatever but apparently I’m basic enough that I haven’t noticed. It getting abandoned does make me quite angry though.
I’ll wait 6 months to make sure it’s not another rug pull like the Stellaris knockoff.

Fair enough. Different studio and game and all that. I’m just gun-shy now.
Wait, what happened? And which game?

Oh my god yes.
