E3 2011 trailer: Star Trek

The Star Trek franchise is no stranger to the world of video games. There have been several titles in almost every genre over the years, but in general, the games have never really been able to appeal to an audience beyond the Trekkie nation. It is a shame too, because some of the games have been very good but just haven’t gotten the love they deserved. That may all change next year.

A new Star Trek game was teased this week at E3, and although the details are still scarce, there are a few things that should make it stand out. The first is that it is based on the JJ Abrams Star Trek movie, and features the likenesses of the cast as well as the music and look of the recent movie. That alone should give it a bit of a wider audience than previous games, but the fact that it is a third-person action title with a co-op element should keep it on people’s radars. Plus jumping out of a ship and catching the Enterprise in space is pretty awesome.

More details on this game should be coming soon, but expect it sometime next year.

Now, we have confirmation on just how it plans to get back on its feet after the ESA announced a partnership with ReedPop, the company behind the PAX conventions.

Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest, as well as other digital gaming showcase livestreams coming this summer, have proven that the gaming industry doesn't need E3, which was canceled this year for the second time in two years to reduce health risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) is telling everyone not to count it out just yet. Gaming's governing body has announced that E3 will be returning in 2023.

ESA President and CEO Stan Pierre-Louis said in an interview with The Washington Post that E3 2023 will combine both in-person and digital elements. He attributed the success of last year's virtual E3 to the expanse of its reach to fans and journalists around the world who couldn't afford to fly to Los Angeles for the convention or couldn't attend it for other reasons. He added that people still want to connect and network with each other in person.
