The Polish studio has teamed up with the newly launched Paramount Games Studio to bring Star Trek: Shadow Frontier to life, slated for a 2027 debut on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
The narrative centers on Ro Laren, the iconic character portrayed by Michelle Forbes in both Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Picard, who has once again returned to voice her role.
After responding to a distress signal, Ro’s vessel crashes onto an uncharted planet that appears to be a derelict spaceship graveyard.
As she navigates the corrupted terrain, encounters other survivors, battles grotesque creatures, confronts a hostile ecosystem, and resists an entity that threatens to consume her mind and body, the game promises a tense, immersive experience.
Bloober Team’s CEO, Piotr Babieno, revealed the studio’s latest venture, expressing long‑awaited enthusiasm: “After years of anticipation, we’re finally ready to unveil what we’ve been crafting. As devoted science‑fiction aficionados, Star Trek has always resonated deeply with us.”
Babieno emphasized the fusion of the team’s horror expertise with their passion for the franchise, announcing a collaboration with Paramount to deliver an unprecedented experience: “By marrying our love for the series with our signature dark, psychological thrills, we’re creating a fresh adventure within a cherished universe.”
Shawn Kittelsen, SVP and head of creative and production art at Paramount Games Studios, praised Bloober’s reputation for immersive, tension‑driven gameplay, noting that the studio’s track record aligns perfectly with the ambitious scope of this project.
In partnering with Bloober Team for Star Trek: Shadow Frontier, it is imperative to collaborate with a studio capable of both preserving the legacy and propelling it into uncharted territories. With utmost confidence in Bloober’s prowess, we anticipate a game that not only upholds the esteemed Star Trek name but also introduces something innovative and exhilarating to the cherished franchise.
Back in March, Bloober Team announced its intention to unveil multiple projects under development this year. The Polish studio currently operates two production teams concurrently, each focusing on a significant horror title, and a secondary team, Broken Mirror Games, dedicated to the Nintendo exclusive Project M.
In March, Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno disclosed that the team behind Cronos: The New Dawn was in pre-production for one of these large games, codenamed Project H, while also lending support to development on select second-party titles.
In a bustling week of releases, the studio unveiled a new title alongside the much‑anticipated Star Trek: Shadow Frontier, adding fresh excitement to its portfolio.
Fans of competitive shooters will be thrilled to learn that the studio is also launching Saw: Genesis, a high‑octane 3v1 multiplayer experience slated for Early Access later this year. This fast‑paced title promises intense, team‑based combat with a unique twist on the classic franchise, positioning it as a strong contender in the crowded multiplayer arena.
