STO's Stormfall Update Brings Voyager, DS9, & Discovery Characters Together
A brand-new Star Trek Online update, titled Stormfall, will assemble characters from across the sci-fi franchise for an adventure into the Mirror Universe.

The Star Trek: Discovery cast played Dungeons & Dragonsat an event last year, but two of the show's stars will now appear in Star Trek Online alongside other franchise veterans.
