MAY 25, 2021 - On Tuesday, Perfect World Entertainment Inc. and Cryptic Studios announced the latest addition to Star Trek Online. Following the 2020 updates House Divided and House Shattered, House United will give players the chance to participate in the highly-anticipated finale to the Klingon Civil War, which has for too long torn the Klingon Empire apart. House United is available now on PC and will be released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on August 3rd.

After travelling to the sacred planet of Boreth and descending into the pits of Gre’thor, J’Ula, matriarch of House Mo’Kai, has resurrected the famed Klingon Warrior, L’Rell, voiced by Mary Chieffo. L’Rell will be a guiding light for J’Ula on what it truly means to be Klingon, as players will have to prove themselves and build an army, before heading to Qo’noS for the final epic battle. Captains will also encounter emblematic characters such as Aakar (voiced by Robert O’Reilly), General Martok (voiced by J.G Hertzler), and Adet’Pa (voiced by Rekha Sharma).

These events take place across two brand new featured episodes. In “Warriors of the Empire”, players will fight alongside J’Ula and L’Rell as they build up their forces, before heading to Qo’nos to end the Klingon Civil War in the second episode, “A Day Long Remembered”.

House United also gives players the opportunity to earn exclusive rewards by completing tasks in a Special Event, and participating in a brand-new Task Force Operation. The “Only Qo’nos Endures” Event will allow game captains to earn an exclusive reward, a ground set inspired by the villainous Aakar, by exploring new episodes, patrols and task force operations associated with the Klingon Civil War. Players will get to experience “Remain Klingon” a 5-Captain space TFO, which concludes the Civil War storyline as the final battle takes place over Qo’noS. There are also three new patrols available based on the “Warriors of the Empire” episode.
