Update M50 Patch Notes

By Star Trek 10 January 2023

Commanders,

The Borg are a silent menace lurking in the dark. Why have they returned? What do they want? Nobody seems to know. Most are wise enough to keep away. But for some, the risk is worth it…

A scientist is causing havoc in an attempt to find her long-ago assimilated brother. Luckily, the Commander is there to intervene, along with a new and unlikely ally; a former Borg drone.

A group of rogue Pakleds have concocted a hare-brained scheme to install a spy on board a Borg ship. They enlist the Commander’s help, but soon find out that they may have bitten off more than they can chew.

Maia inevitably catches the attention of the Borg. She must contend with the threat of her own assimilation and find a way to retain her individuality. Will she be able to fight off the hive mind?

“You cannot hide. You cannot escape. You will be assimilated.”

Star Trek Fleet Command Update 50 brings with it:

  • Fleet Commanders
  • Borg Solo Armadas
  • New Officers
  • New Missions
  • And much more

Check out the full patch notes below for all the details

Fleet Commanders



With Star Trek Fleet Command Update 50 now live, Fleet Commanders are at everyone’s disposal Operations level 15 and up! Unlike the officers that work aboard your ships, Fleet Commanders provide powerful buffs from the new Commander Center building located in your station.

Each Fleet Command has their own unique set of abilities, and choosing the right ones for you will be crucial in taking on the new threats throughout the system. 

        


Play the mission Legends of the Cosmos, choose between Admiral Kirk and Captain Spock and unlock your first choice!
