Star Trek Online Remembers Leonard Nimoy

Star Trek Online has created some in-game memorials to Leonard Nimoy on the planets Vulcan and Romulus.

Legacy of Romulus Poster

A new poster has been released for the Star Trek Online Legacy of Romulus expansion (read: here).

Legacy of Romulus

On May 21, 2013 the Star Trek Online video game will launch a new expansion called Legacy of Romulus.

"Romulus and Remus are gone. You are one of the survivors, struggling to survive in the aftermath of unspeakable destruction. These are dark and dangerous times for your people, as the Tal Shiar crack down on any dissent and mysterious beings unleash terror throughout the far-flung colony worlds.  You will be the one to reshape an empire. Gather allies, go undercover and find the proof that will rally your people to revolt. Together, you will rise up against an oppressive regime and demand freedom. You will fight for your people.

You are the Legacy of Romulus."

Denise Crosby will return as the voice of Empress Sela to lead what is left of our cousins.  As I've said before, I'm not a gamer.  I do, however, appreciate the design and detail that's gone into this game.  More information is available on the official site.

T'Mar and Surok

I'm not a video gamer but I felt it necessary to report that the forthcoming Star Trek game (released April 23, 2013) will feature two new Vulcan characters.

According to StarTrek.com, Surok was one of Spock's childhood mentors and his daughter, T'Mar, was a friend of Spock's.

In the story of the game, these two apparently help to colonize New Vulcan.
