A fast-paced strategy experience, the game brings players unparalleled access to the Star Trek universe along with an epic narrative that unfolds as they travel to the furthest corners of the galaxy."
"We're thrilled to work with CBS Interactive on such iconic IP and believe we've designed an expansive, dynamic and super social Star Trek experience for both strategy and role-play gaming fans," said Tim O'Brien, chief revenue officer at Scopely, in a statement. "We wanted to create a cinematic, action-packed, genre-defying game that embraces the heart of the franchise—exploration, to allow players to experience an entire galaxy of quests and missions for endless adventure."
"We are always looking for new ways to bring fans more robust, interactive Star Trek experiences," said Rob Gelick, executive vice president and general Manager at CBS Entertainment Digital, CBS Interactive.

Star Trek Fleet Command features stories written by Star Trek comic book writer Mike Johnson. With Paramount's Star Trek film franchise now in a holding pattern, Johnson teased in an interview that Fleet Command may present the opportunity to tell Kelvin Timeline stories set after the events of Star Trek Beyond.
"The game is indeed set in the Kelvin universe," Johnson said. "It starts just before Star Trek Beyond. Our story will encompass the events of Beyond, and then we'll go... beyond Beyond."
