Star Trek: Discovery Away Mission allows up to 6 participants to enter the Star Trek universe, using phasers, tricorders, and even a holodeck. According to
Variety, the experience is guided by
Star Trek Discoverystar
Mary Wiseman in her role as Starfleet Ensign Sylvia Tilly from the CBS All Access series. The experience is to last for close to 30 minutes with some combat situations, but Hampden said that it would focus more on problem-solving than typical shooter situations. “We are trying to recreate the
Star Trek experience,” he said.
This isn’t
StarTrek’s first foray into virtual reality.
Star Trek: Bridge Crew, the virtual reality action-adventure game developed by Red Storm Entertainment and published by Ubisoft, was released for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation VR in 2017. The game later added non-VR support and
Star Trek: The Next Generation themed expansion.
