Not only are we getting the horror-adventure Star Trek: Shadow Frontier, we're also getting a colony builder with Star Trek: Outposts Unknown.

This one is set during the era of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, with a whole new original story. So it's not a total sandbox like other similar building games, it does have a narrative focus. There's no current release date for it but it does have a demo so you can check it out early. The demo contains the first 3 hours of the narrative gameplay.

See the trailer below:

Well, it isn't going to run on my laptop, so I guess it's a pass. Too bad, it actually looked interesting...
