Im Dezember soll die "dritte Staffel" bzw. das dritte Inhaltsupdate für Star Trek Online (ab 12,50€ bei kaufen) veröffentlicht werden. Neben der Beta-Version des Missions-Editors (wir berichteten) wird es demnächst möglich sein, fast jede bisher gespielte Mission auf dem Holodeck erneut zu absolvieren - stellenweise sogar mit neuen Belohnungen. Admiräle und Generäle sollen zukünftig in der Lage sein, die Technologie der Borg zu "assimilieren". Diese neuen Gegenstände sollen besonders stark sein und zudem das Aussehen (des Schiffes) beeinflussen, sofern ihr das möchtet. Die aktuell sehr spärliche Sektorkarte des Weltraums soll komplett verändert werden, um ein besseres Gefühl von "Größe und Realismus" zu vermitteln. Ansonsten sind diverse kleinere Updates und Bugfixes geplant (Gegenstände, Crafting, Sets, Ladebildschirme, etc).
