Three classic starships from Star Trek games past are coming to Star Trek Online! Take command of the Achilles, Typhon, and Premonition with the Heritage Starship Bundle!
It brings _me_ pain seeing them waste a chance to make it look like it belongs in Trek. Remove the warp nacelles and you have a star destroyer. _Waste._
yes i can be a young kid again playing the typhon. fun fact tho is that the typhon is a modular ship that can fit multiple roles. from carrier to hospital ship and even cargo ship. its like the Independence-class littoral combat ship but than done beter and in space
Recreating the Achilles cutscene from Domonion War got me all nostalgic. It was the first Star Trek game I ever played. For many years, I've hoped that beautiful ship could make its way to Star Trek Online.
This is making me want to go back and play Dominion Wars all over again. For as much of a rough game and buggy mess it was, it was the closest we got to a full space Dominion War game. The nostalgia with their attention to the intro sequences is incredible
Seriously? I would not object the Premonition wiping out the timelines of Picard and Discovery as both are in direct VIOLATION to the temporal high directive. Those 2 things are alternate timelines that did NOT fix themselfs.
He was forced to. Those 3 ships? Among the most powerfull ever build. Premonition can change time itself and stop it Achiless is basicaly an intrepid on steroids Typhon needs no introduction. She basicaly what happened when a Sovereign breed with the old Galactica So yea, you tell me, in their respective games and timelines, what could even HOPE to fight them headon?
2:20 "Greetings, Starfighter! You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the frontier against Xur and the Kodan Armada." ACTIVATE DEATH BLOSSOM.
ngl, i may have jumped out of my chair with excitement when Premonition used the Gemini Effect on the Enterprise-F. This was awesome! I can't wait to get my hands on these ships!
OMG i know! Armada and Dominion War were awesome nice to see some throw backs to those. The animation of this trailer was pretty bad, but i mean... do we want a good trailer or good content am i right!?
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. The Typhon! Literally had me crying as someone who played the crap out of all the games in the late 90s and early 00s.
As one of the few players who sat in the lobby of Startrek Armada, saying goodbye to everyone the day the servers finally went offline. . . seeing the Premonition again tugged at my heart.
I would pay real money for a modern dominion war. You know, aside from the Outstanding Armada 3 Mod for Sins of a solar empire. That mod btw is the benchmark in terms of fidelity and accuracy for ships and effects.
Almost matching, the gemini effect was ironically better looking and sounding in the original armada intro, plus the sovereign looked infinitely more badass unloading pain into the locutus cube, it's amazing just what difference you can get by having the phaser strip energy build up and some longer firing beams over STOs mmo style generic pew pew beams.
Man this is so fucking awesome! The logo at the beginning like in the activision game, the gemini effect from the premo, the achilles with the dorsal quantum launchers and pulse cannons, the defensive mode of the typhon and then the fusion cube :O
The Starfleet Command games would be a good source. Wouldn't mind getting the Ark Royal Carrier and Yamato Battleship. And maybe the Lexington Command Cruiser from Klingon Academy. (I know we have the Ody variant Lexington but still...)
@@chrisjohnson1146not all of them, for tng era ships we are still missing the k-18, K-32 k'vort refit, raptor(Romulan), harpy, whitewing, the apollo refit, and proxima refit. Plus every borg ship For the rest of the games roster we do not in STO have Federation Discovery class Strider class Minuteman class Poseidon class Yorktown class Apollo class Proxima class Akula class For klingons Stinger D-3 K-18 K-32 Predator Stalker Death rite K'vort D-14 K'vort refit K-30 Ravenous And for romulan Swarm Praetor Skyhawk Swift wing Grpyhon Whitewing Raptor Hunter Stormbird Romulan ktinga Winged defender Harpy Battlehawk Vengeance Heavy defender And then bonus round the vulcan Surak class T'urell uses in Legacy because that's a nice vulcan ship.
OMG THE PREMONITION! Love all the homages to the opening cutscenes for the old Activision trek games!! I forgot about Star Trek: Invasion entirely. Wow, the fusion cube!
HOLY FRAK! THIS IS AWESOME! I played two out of three of those games and I recognized the abilities used! Gemini Effect from Armada, Torpedo Phalanx from Dominion Wars, and while I haven't played Invasion I saw Fortress Mode on the Typhon.
The typhon is actually present in the Star trek armada 3 mod for Sins of a solar empire, has been there for a while too, complete with it's Valkyrie fighters.
The premonition and fusion cube brought back some huge memories. I remember how long it took to make that cube and when you finally did, just decimated everything.
Star Trek: Armada, Star Trek: Armada 2, Star Trek: Invasion and Star Trek: Dominion Wars are all saying hello from the past. Fascinating. And surprising. Especially for that nod to "The Last Starfighter".
I, ah, I never played Star Trek Online. But that chunky carrier ship with the "The Last Starfighter Death Blossom" ultimate? I want six of 'm. Sign me up :)
Really awesome trailer, great work! Please make trailers like this for future ship releases. Regarding the ship models, they look incredible and I'm really impressed with the special abilities of each ship!
@@Tuskin38 Not true at all, you're making excuses just like them. There's over 40 KDF ships not playable that's already in the game. The KDF allies have a lot of ships. We can't fly them or get T6 versions. Why? We're never know. It will Cost STO nothing. Just make the playable and put a price. They're just lazy. be honest.
I nearly fell off my chair when I saw the announcement and the picture of the Typhoon. But I always thought it was larger, it's so tiny! This makes me very happy with STO. And best part, they aren't hidden behind lockboxes!
As much as i like this (i love Armada, Invasion & Dominion Wars)... i'm missing the USS Incursion (from Star Trek : Away Team) with its Holographic masking system...
Having played Armada for years and years since it came out, even to this day still, this gave me freakin goosebumps. Recreating parts of the Armada intro. Now that's how you release a new ship!!!!
@@ncv-eu4rj for you maybe but I grew with the games having the D or the E and those ships have earned there place on the title screens not the Whale that is the F
HOLY FREAKING CRAP.!!! I have wanted Gemni Effect since Star Trek Online Launched I have wanted the factical fusion cube to be in the game since launch! WOWOWOWOWOW
finally alot of the ships & powers I've been waiting for are here but something for the devs to think about is can there be a forge system to combine sets from different reps into a fusion? also will there ever be warp core powers like the singularity core powers?
Seeing the Activision-style intro really got to me. This rules. Thanks for making me feel old. But thanks for doing this so much! I loved the Typhon as a kid. And the Prometheus.
Ohhhhhhh put that storming Fusion Cube in front of me so I can rip it apart. LEMME ATTEM, LEMME ATTEM! Ohhhh, I've been waiting for a crack at a Fusion Cube since we first got the greenlight for Activerse content. Let's storming *GOOOOO!*
No, it just means the Typhon Class itself exists in Star Trek Online. The blog about the bundle mentions Star Trek: Invasion, but only in the context of explaining where the ship actually originated from. The store usually includes some basic in-universe backstory on a ship class and its features, so we'll have to wait until that's available to see if the events of the game are referenced.
This the kind of release they need to be doing for new content in the game all the time. This was a fantastic trailer pulling on the old nostalgia strings for games of days gone by. They did extremely well in recreating the ships and the mechanics of them. Let the art team do the promotional material online and you get the hype building nicely. Then drop a trailer like this and you'll see the sales go up. This trailer has to be one of the most liked that they have ever done
Now THIS is how you introduce the ships of a new bundle properly!
Seeing the Typhon again after all these years playing Invasion brings me great joy.
It brings _me_ pain seeing them waste a chance to make it look like it belongs in Trek.
Remove the warp nacelles and you have a star destroyer. _Waste._
@@housecoatgaming Its a PRE-EXISTING design. It IS from an older Star Trek game and being faithful to the design is the point.
@@housecoatgaming it looks nothing like a star destroyer
yes i can be a young kid again playing the typhon. fun fact tho is that the typhon is a modular ship that can fit multiple roles. from carrier to hospital ship and even cargo ship.
its like the Independence-class littoral combat ship but than done beter and in space
@@housecoatgaming telling us you never had a ps1 without telling us huh?
Recreating the Achilles cutscene from Domonion War got me all nostalgic. It was the first Star Trek game I ever played. For many years, I've hoped that beautiful ship could make its way to Star Trek Online.
Now we need the hutet !
@@phrenetik That'd make such a great Cardassian dreadnought!
They did the same with Armada and Invasion, right down to recreating the Activision logo being blown up with the Cryptic logo
Sir, the enemy is firing nostalgia weapons! Direct hit! Shields are down!
This is making me want to go back and play Dominion Wars all over again. For as much of a rough game and buggy mess it was, it was the closest we got to a full space Dominion War game. The nostalgia with their attention to the intro sequences is incredible
The Premonition is a ship I thought would be lost to the annals of history, and yet here she is, in one of my favorite games of all time.
Same. I'm happy to see it again after all these years.
Seriously? I would not object the Premonition wiping out the timelines of Picard and Discovery as both are in direct VIOLATION to the temporal high directive. Those 2 things are alternate timelines that did NOT fix themselfs.
ok someone at STO`s design team basically went "make them all badass" lol
And I have absolutely no problem with that...
EC Henry was in charge of the Premonition and good god, that man cooks so hard. He is a Master Chef!
@@InzuDraRagna If EC Henry's in the kitchen, we're all eatin' good.
@@3Rayfire Hell yeah we are.
He was forced to. Those 3 ships? Among the most powerfull ever build.
Premonition can change time itself and stop it
Achiless is basicaly an intrepid on steroids
Typhon needs no introduction. She basicaly what happened when a Sovereign breed with the old Galactica
So yea, you tell me, in their respective games and timelines, what could even HOPE to fight them headon?
2:20 "Greetings, Starfighter! You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the frontier against Xur and the Kodan Armada." ACTIVATE DEATH BLOSSOM.
Aye, Aye!
"Star League! A Refuge for weak Worlds not worthy to be our equals!" - Xur
Starfleet Engineers " how many phasers do you want on your ship? "
Worf " Yes "
yes! literally what I was just screaming..activate death blossom!
Glad I wasn't the only one who IMMEDIATELY thought "Death Blossom" when that appeared, here 's to old sci fi nerds.
ngl, i may have jumped out of my chair with excitement when Premonition used the Gemini Effect on the Enterprise-F. This was awesome! I can't wait to get my hands on these ships!
i need that carrier, i played the fuck out of invasion back in the day
I agree, so amazing. I wanted all three ships in the game for so long. I hope we get more ships from other games in the future.
@@novastarmew That Typhon Carrier! OMG it's like Christmas day for me.
When I saw that I said to myself
"First the top hat storage, now this? Somebody is looking out for Stu1701 cuz he's gonna flip over this"
I knew I'd seen that effect somewhere.
My younger self who played Armada is screaming right now
Sir, the enemy is firing nostalgia weapons! Direct hit! Shields are down!
OMG i know! Armada and Dominion War were awesome nice to see some throw backs to those.
The animation of this trailer was pretty bad, but i mean... do we want a good trailer or good content am i right!?
Same! Holy HECK! o_o;
I have to wonder if the temporal prime directive applies anymore....
@@RenardThatch ..... No.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. The Typhon! Literally had me crying as someone who played the crap out of all the games in the late 90s and early 00s.
Hear hear :)
And the use of the classic activision intro
As one of the few players who sat in the lobby of Startrek Armada, saying goodbye to everyone the day the servers finally went offline. . . seeing the Premonition again tugged at my heart.
2:20 really brings a new meaning to the phrase "FIRE EVERYTHING!!!"
Matching the effects and weapons from the games too!
Never would have thought this was possible, but now I need remasters of each of these games!
I would pay real money for a modern dominion war.
You know, aside from the Outstanding Armada 3 Mod for Sins of a solar empire. That mod btw is the benchmark in terms of fidelity and accuracy for ships and effects.
@@trazyntheinfinite9895 That mod and the Homeworld Star Trek mods are excellent!
Almost matching, the gemini effect was ironically better looking and sounding in the original armada intro, plus the sovereign looked infinitely more badass unloading pain into the locutus cube, it's amazing just what difference you can get by having the phaser strip energy build up and some longer firing beams over STOs mmo style generic pew pew beams.
🖖 This is what we like to see!!
Man this is so fucking awesome! The logo at the beginning like in the activision game, the gemini effect from the premo, the achilles with the dorsal quantum launchers and pulse cannons, the defensive mode of the typhon and then the fusion cube :O
u gotta love those fusion cubes, btw I won the local tournament with them back in 2001 :)
Yea the logo got me too
I grew up on Star Trek: Armada and Armada II. Just need some ships from Star Trek Legacy and I'm a happy camper!
Might boost the ENT and TOS/TMP era fleets with that one as I think all the TNG era ships are already in game.
@@chrisjohnson1146 world needs more TMP and Lost Era ships!
The Starfleet Command games would be a good source. Wouldn't mind getting the Ark Royal Carrier and Yamato Battleship. And maybe the Lexington Command Cruiser from Klingon Academy. (I know we have the Ody variant Lexington but still...)
@@chrisjohnson1146not all of them, for tng era ships we are still missing the k-18, K-32 k'vort refit, raptor(Romulan), harpy, whitewing, the apollo refit, and proxima refit.
Plus every borg ship
For the rest of the games roster we do not in STO have
Federation

And then bonus round the vulcan Surak class T'urell uses in Legacy because that's a nice vulcan ship.
Damn the Typhon unleashing the "Death Blossom" Firing Mode. Lol. This Heritage Starship Bundle makes it a worthy buy from me.
For me it was it being carried like a little baby into the fight. It’s and adorable badass ship
OMG THE PREMONITION! Love all the homages to the opening cutscenes for the old Activision trek games!! I forgot about Star Trek: Invasion entirely. Wow, the fusion cube!
That fusion cube tease at the end...ominous...
I'm glad someone caught that...... what's the Fusion Cube from?
@@captaindraco2286 Star Trek Armada 2. 8 Borg cubes or 8 tactical cubes could combine into a giant cube called a fusion cube
@@SkydreamPony ok......
Ok........ Oh KAY
at least its not a tactical fusion cube
HOLY FRAK! THIS IS AWESOME!
I played two out of three of those games and I recognized the abilities used! Gemini Effect from Armada, Torpedo Phalanx from Dominion Wars, and while I haven't played Invasion I saw Fortress Mode on the Typhon.
I never thought I'd see the Typhon used for anything ever again. That's pretty sick.
The typhon is actually present in the Star trek armada 3 mod for Sins of a solar empire, has been there for a while too, complete with it's Valkyrie fighters.
I would have been hyped just for the Achilles but the fact the game now has the The Premonition and the Typhon with its Valkyries....wow.
the armada intro with the Cryptic logo? Amazing
This is the best trailer you guys have done, incredible job!
Did that Typhon just death blossom?! Also Premonition, I'll take your entire stock.
I may not have played Invasion, but I believe that was Fortress Mode, which I remember reading about.
@@chrisjohnson1146 yep, Fortress mode protects vital systems and activates phaser turrents.
man the nostalgia overload here, played all these ships before and now i get to play them again in STO, thank you
you pulling my leg ? this is sick Prominition / thyphoon / Achiles ... best bundle ever
OK, the bundle looks REAL good!
But LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT BORG SUPER CUBE!!!!
its fusion cube from armada 2
@outlawedTV88 I know, been awhile since I played it.
Super Cube sounds cooler though 😜
@@Geth7777 mega giga super duper cube! kicks ass, no dozens star destroyers can match her 😇
The borg lego cube!
Premonition, Typhon, Achilles, the great ships from games that some people haven't heard of but are still relevent today!
The premonition and fusion cube brought back some huge memories. I remember how long it took to make that cube and when you finally did, just decimated everything.
That's how you honour a franchises legacy 🎉
Absolutely brilliant
Star Trek: Armada, Star Trek: Armada 2, Star Trek: Invasion and Star Trek: Dominion Wars are all saying hello from the past.
Fascinating. And surprising. Especially for that nod to "The Last Starfighter".
AAAAAAAAH THE TYPHON CLASS!!!!!!!!
Genuinely the most hyped I've been for STO in recent months. These ships look awesome! And the trailer, oh... chef's kiss!
Holy shit this store memories. Now armada 1 and 2 and Dominion wars all deserve remakes as wel as Invasion.
Well done on the trailer & looks to be a deserved well done on the bundle itself. It feels like a question of "when" will I purchase this bundle.
Ahhh Armada... Good times... Good times
I love the torpedo "V"LS of the Anc.
Thought disappointed there isn't a Hutet though.
Well you can't have everything I suppose.
I, ah, I never played Star Trek Online. But that chunky carrier ship with the "The Last Starfighter Death Blossom" ultimate?
I want six of 'm. Sign me up :)
For the next Heritage bundle, I would like to see the Yorktown class from Star Trek Legacy.
So much nostalgia, you get my Kudos for the Activision Intro alone!
Stunning job this was done so well. THIS is how you introduce a new Starship Bundle.
Awesome seeing all the ships from previous Activsion games.
Hope the Fusion Cube is part of the next part of the story.
Called it now. Next TFO boss is a fusion cube
Really awesome trailer, great work! Please make trailers like this for future ship releases. Regarding the ship models, they look incredible and I'm really impressed with the special abilities of each ship!
Thank you for that amazing trip down memory lane. Typhon looks beautiful!
Nostalgia overload seeing the Armada cutscene again in sto was amazing bought back so many memories.
Ow crap.. that's a Fusion Cube....
Ahh, yes, thank you, these will be a delightful addition to my personal Fleet. ❤❤❤❤
Something's coming in the next episode....I feel like we've just been given a teaser....
It's big and green
@@EricLidiak "I'm just a mean green mother from outer space
And I'm bad..."
The Achilles looks so beautiful!
Omg, this was awesome! So many call backs to amazing cutscenes from amazing games. I might actually have to start playing STO!
Got a little giddy when I saw the Typhon class go into seige mode.
2:29 Ah, the Typhon, bringing starfighters and the Death Blossom to Starfleet.
Great Bundle, but please remember other Factions exist in the game too. You're learning very strongly to becoming 'Star Fleet Online'.
I'll like to see a Cardassian bundle personally
Problem is, they don't make a lot of money from the other factions.
@@Tuskin38 Imagine a supermarket saying "milk makes us a lot money, so let's sell nothing else."
@@QuantumNova not a valid comparison. They have said they make a loss on non-Fed ships. It costs them more to make them than they usually sell.
@@Tuskin38 Not true at all, you're making excuses just like them. There's over 40 KDF ships not playable that's already in the game. The KDF allies have a lot of ships. We can't fly them or get T6 versions. Why? We're never know.
It will Cost STO nothing. Just make the playable and put a price. They're just lazy. be honest.
That's a Trailer! So many call backs.
My younger self is absolutely hyped
It’s the Typhon!!!
Wow, the Temporal Duplicator weapon from Armada?!? Awesome!
By the emperor’s beard! FUSION CUBES?!
Oh god, no… TACTICAL FUSION CUBES ARE GOING TO BE A THING.
Next TFO boss likely
Typhon class is an absolute menace from the look of this
I nearly fell off my chair when I saw the announcement and the picture of the Typhoon.
But I always thought it was larger, it's so tiny!
This makes me very happy with STO.
And best part, they aren't hidden behind lockboxes!
So Starlfleet has developed Death Blossom?
As much as i like this (i love Armada, Invasion & Dominion Wars)... i'm missing the USS Incursion (from Star Trek : Away Team) with its Holographic masking system...
Whoa. Nice Armada callback....and I really liked that Death Blossom on the Typhon.
Haven't noticed ridiculous floating ship parts with this ships, so this are cool looking ships, specially the Intrepid looking one
Almost feels like its set int the Starship Troopers universe.
Nailed it, this hits all the right nostalgy buttons, down to the sound! Great work
Geez that was a beautiful introduction
NOW THIS is a good bundle!
The Achilles and the Typhon!!!!! my childhood
I haven't seen a blog yet so a bit of a surprise that it's dropping today. But the capabilities look awesome!
There is a blog, but unfortunately the STO News page is having some issues as of right now. Known issue.
This. Trailer. Is. AWESOME!!!
What is better that the Typhon swooping in? The Typhon doing the Death Blossom! I'm going to cry tears of joy!
Star Trek Armada and Star Trek Dominon Wars damn such nostalgia.
Amazing fan service - lovely to see our old hero ships!
I’m sold
bro me to
Having played Armada for years and years since it came out, even to this day still, this gave me freakin goosebumps. Recreating parts of the Armada intro. Now that's how you release a new ship!!!!
Such a nostalgia trip!
Wow the render for the Premonition is slick.
I don't play STO, but a friend told me I had to watch this and oh, man, it made me so happy.
Seeing the USS Achilles back in all its glory is awesome.
By far the best trailer
Nice recreation of the Activison into with the F but would of been better if you used the Enterprise E
But the E was back then and the F is OUR flagship.
@@ncv-eu4rj for you maybe but I grew with the games having the D or the E and those ships have earned there place on the title screens not the Whale that is the F
I could cry. IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!
HOLY FREAKING CRAP.!!! I have wanted Gemni Effect since Star Trek Online Launched I have wanted the factical fusion cube to be in the game since launch! WOWOWOWOWOW
finally alot of the ships & powers I've been waiting for are here but something for the devs to think about is can there be a forge system to combine sets from different reps into a fusion? also will there ever be warp core powers like the singularity core powers?
Please bring the Romulan and Klingon ships from Armada and Armada II to STO. Especially the Romulan ones, they were such good designs.
Now that is a trailer! So good
The Veyar sound at the end was a bit of a hu?
Seeing the Activision-style intro really got to me. This rules. Thanks for making me feel old. But thanks for doing this so much! I loved the Typhon as a kid. And the Prometheus.
I must say I'm loving the Achilles class. It's great to have it back.
Got me already on this one. Looks very tempting
Ohhhhhhh put that storming Fusion Cube in front of me so I can rip it apart. LEMME ATTEM, LEMME ATTEM! Ohhhh, I've been waiting for a crack at a Fusion Cube since we first got the greenlight for Activerse content. Let's storming *GOOOOO!*
That opening!! I'm so happy right now
My only minor nitpick wish the Typhon came with Valors or at least unlocked the purchase of them
YES!!! the Achilles! have no idea how many years been waiting for it to be in STO from Dominion Wars.
Even the intro is an homage to the old Activision Star Trek games intro.
I'm not playing STO anymore, but well done whoever made that trailer.
What is that chunky death machine, I love it.
Does This Mean Star Trek Invasion is Canon Now? Cuz that adds to Worfs Even More Badd-Assery:-)
No, it just means the Typhon Class itself exists in Star Trek Online. The blog about the bundle mentions Star Trek: Invasion, but only in the context of explaining where the ship actually originated from.
The store usually includes some basic in-universe backstory on a ship class and its features, so we'll have to wait until that's available to see if the events of the game are referenced.
Whoever cut this trailer to look like Armarda's intro, amazing job
This the kind of release they need to be doing for new content in the game all the time. This was a fantastic trailer pulling on the old nostalgia strings for games of days gone by. They did extremely well in recreating the ships and the mechanics of them. Let the art team do the promotional material online and you get the hype building nicely. Then drop a trailer like this and you'll see the sales go up. This trailer has to be one of the most liked that they have ever done
Would also like to see a Kirk Class C-Store ship/Bundle in the near future upgraded stats and Seating like the Inquiry has ! Love that ship ! !
My breakfast is ruined. Spat my tea all over it when I squawked: "It's the bloody Typhon!"
Wanted this ship for an eternity and it looks incredible.
