The lore video series continues over at GameSpot with the release of The Future Past: Part 2. The video starts out catching up viewers with the events highlighted in part one, and then fills in the rest of the gaps that lead to the war between the Federation and the Klingon in the year 2409, which is when Star Trek Online will take place.
A new Star Trek Online trailer is available for viewing over at GameVideos. The new trailer opens with the history of the establishment of the Federation in order to pursue to the peaceful discovery of new species and worlds, but quickly reminds us that "even those who strive for peace, must be prepared for war," and switches to some high-octane combat footage involving tons of ships, and even Borg cubes, but more importantly, a good dosage of ground combat.
