Venture Beat visits Cryptic to see Star Trek Online

Filed under: Video, New titles, News items, Star Trek Online


It's no secret that while Cryptic Studios has done well for themselves over the years, Star Trek Online is easily their biggest project yet. In fact, if successful, this game will easily attract a large amount of people who probably wouldn't otherwise look at an MMO, let alone purchase and subscribe to one.

With this in mind, it's no surprise that Venture Beat's Dean Takahashi visited the developer for the skinny on everything to do with both the game and the company behind it. The videos and feature are more of a probing look into the people working on the beloved franchise's foray into massively multiplayer online gaming space than a preview on the actual game itself -- and we're all the richer for that. Getting a look at the heart and soul of the people behind any game is supremely refreshing.

Check out the video coverage from Venture Beat after the break.
