Perpetual Entertainment, a games developer and publisher which recently received a $6.5 million investment, has been given the rights to produce a Star Trek Massively Multi-Player Online Game (MMOG):

Players will encounter characters, places, and situations from their favorite Star Trek movies and television series; will explore incredible new worlds; and will cooperate with or battle friendly and hostile races throughout the game,” said Chris McKibbin, President of Perpetual Entertainment.

"Fans of Star Trek have been longing for a game that lets them participate in and explore the Star Trek universe," said Terri Helton, Executive Vice President of Viacom Consumer Products. "We have been searching for the right partnership for our time-honored Star Trek to create a game that not only appeals to fans but a broader audience as well. Perpetual’s experience, technology and vision for this game make them the clear choice."

The game will be scheduled for public beta testing in 2006. Story via Slashdot
