Star Trek: Shadow Frontier Announced - Action-Thriller from the Authors of Silent Hill 2 Remake

The developers of acclaimed horror games will present a dark story of Ro Laren.

Polish Bloober Team, known to many players for Layers of Fear, Observer, and the Silent Hill 2 remake, has announced a new project based on the Star Trek franchise.

On the Star Trek: Shadow Frontier store page, the game is positioned as an action-adventure:

Michał Gembicki, Head of Publishing at Bloober Team, and Shawn Kittelsen, Head of Creative and Production at Paramount Games Studio, participated in IGN Live. During the event, Shawn said he would describe the game's genre as a “psychological thriller”:

Gembicki noted that Bloober Team loves dark stories and added that in Shadow Frontier, “the combination of horror and dark narrative with such an amazing universe as Star Trek will be excellent.” Kittelsen emphasizes that there has never been such a project in the Star Trek franchise.

The managers have not yet specified the timeline of events within the Star Trek chronology, but Kittelsen noted: “The game's story will delve deeply into Ro Laren's history and her internal conflicts, really bringing them to the surface. This is where that darkness comes from.” Gembicki, in turn, added that there will be “a lot of work with her 'skeletons in the closet' and exploring the consequences of decisions she made in the past.”
