PayPalStar Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown showed promise from the demo with some rough edges, but the new trailer has me excited about the journey.
But before getting into details…what did they do to Seven of Nine?! Why do they have no hair? Or, do we get to pick an entirely different member of the Borg to join the crew? Quite possible given the nature of the game letting you do all sorts of different paths but I need answers.
Anyway, a new trailer has warped in going over a bunch of "what if" moments and it has definitely renewed my interest in seeing the whole journey through after the demo. It focuses on a specific plot-line in the adventure about gathering data, and the different paths you can take on handling it along with some consequences. I don't want to really spoil anything with details, but a certain Romulan scientist being a crew member was certainly a surprise to see as well.

The game really does have a great concept, so I'm keen to see what the end result will be once it's finished. The demo at least has a Very Positive overall rating from players on Steam with a lot of the negative reviews pointing out the lack of any voice acting (something that bugged me too).

But normal, humanized Seven is in the trailer as well?
I can imagine you will be able to add all kind of random crew members that were not part of the show: Borg, Kazon, Hirogen etc.
EDIT: Yeah now I saw that character in the trailer as well. Definitely a different character than Seven.

Locutus confirmed
IIRC, the recent DS9 introduced a completely new character with Kira Nerys instead of Ro Laren from TNG was something similar, as was reintroducing Robert Duncan McNeill as Tom Paris in VOY instead of using his TNG character Cadet Nicholas Locarno. From what I remember, both new characters were originally meant to be the established characters later in life, but that would have meant paying the writers of the original episode, and that was deemed to be not worth it in the end. Or something along those lines. Yes, it's not 100% comparable, I know.
