In case you missed it, Star Trek: Legends from developer FTX Games and publisher Tilting Point recently released as part of a major expansion of Apple Arcade. Apple Arcade’s exclusive iOS video game allows players to control a Starfleet ship while their ship is introduced to the mysterious Nexus, within which they discover a dimension of new worlds and characters. It should be noted that the video game features a new ship called USS Artemis, and the developer recently explained why he decided to introduce a completely new ship instead of using an existing one during a press event attended by ComicBook.com
“The Nexus, where the game takes place, is this realm that can only be entered through these devastating wrecks, so we had to set up that the Federation of Planets created this unique starship that is the the only spacecraft in the fleet, “said Amir Lotan, executive producer and creative director of Star Trek: Legends. “Another reason is this, because we incorporate characters from all eras of [Starfleet], we didn’t want a starship to be specifically associated with one of those shows or one of those times. We really wanted something that felt like the captain of the player and that no one could claim to carry on board. “
Star Trek: Legends is currently available as part of the Apple Arcade subscription service. The service itself, which is available on iOS devices, costs $ 4.99 a month. You can check out all of our previous Apple Arcade coverage here.
