Star Trek Online is celebrating its 16th Anniversary with the brand-new update: Star Trek Online: Corruption. This update is now live on PC and will launch on PlayStation and Xbox consoles on March 10, 2025. It includes the 16th Anniversary Episode: Curse of Phrygia, a new TFO: The Belly of the Beast, the Aetherian Concordium Lockbox, and our 16th Anniversary Event!
A brand-new Episode: Curse of Phrygia
Nicole de Boer returns as Starfleet Captain Ezri Dax of the U.S.S. Aventine. De Boer also portrays a new, and far more rebellious character in our latest release. Kings & Queens arc fan-favorites such as Michele Specht, Kai Vilhelmsen, Jason Charles Miller, and Mara Junot also return to voice brand-new characters.
Old allies reunite, as Captain Ezri Dax urgently summons you to the MIDAS Array. Join her in repelling a Chimeran incursion that threatens both the integrity of the corrupted comms array and the stability of the galaxy. Battle through waves of psionic beacons that call on enemy reinforcements in space and explore a dangerously infested environment once aboard. Peril lurks in every dimly lit corner of the array -- so watch your step and don't look back. The fate of the Alliance, and our universe, depends on you.
Completing the Episode for the first time will grant players an Operator Outfit worn by an ally in “Curse of Phrygia!”

An exciting new TFO: Belly of the Beast
The MIDAS Array is under siege! Chimerans have compromised the strategic communications array. Starfleet Captain Ezri Dax is calling on a task force that can hold the line and survive until reinforcements can arrive. Do you have what it takes to prevent the MIDAS Array from falling to the Chimerans? Play our brand-new, 5-person Ground TFO!
A new Event: Corruption
Chimerans are spreading across the galaxy, corrupting all that stands in their way. As major fleets fall to ongoing sabotage and key Alliance structures are infested beyond repair, every victory now feels infinitesimal in the face of total annihilation. Confronting the Chimerans is no longer a choice, but the only viable path forward. Summon every ounce of your courage and join the fight, before it's too late.

Two new, free Hairstyles:
Look just like our heroes in the new “Curse of Phrygia” episode with two new hairstyles, automatically unlocked for all players in the Tailor: Pixie Hairstyle and Shaggy Hairstyle!
New Items in the Lobi Store:
Alongside the All-new Season update, we are also bringing new additions to the Lobi Store!
Aetherian Proton Disintegrator
This staff-like weapon employs the Aetherians' favorite tactic: manipulating their enemies. Proton beams disable their target, with damage increasing as more targets group together. Aetherian Gravity Traps do the dirty work for you, and if an enemy gets too close, you can force them away with a massive Repulsor blast.
Aetherian Concordium Armor and Costume Unlock
As well as providing essential defense against enemy units, the Aetherian Concordium Armor offers increased resistance against incoming Proton damage, as well as increased energy and shield resistance. It is also equipped with an active support ability, which calls in an allied Aetherian Shield and Interference drone. This armor takes the best functions from our enemies and grants them to you.
Claiming this Armor will also unlock additional Tailor options, allowing you and your bridge crew to model the latest in Aetherian fashion.
Aetherian Drone Pet - 5 Variants
These small Aetherian Constructs are permanently stuck in safe-mode, so no matter how much it desires to fuse you, it cannot hurt you. All it can do is follow you around, harmlessly. They're cute, too.
Comes in Azure, Crimson, Emerald, Purple and our own favorite, Silver!
