IRVINE, California, April 24, 2000 – 14* East, a division of Interplay Entertainment Corp., is pleased announce the sequel to the highly acclaimed Star Trek: Starfleet Command®.

Starfleet Command Volume II - Empires at War is currently in development at Taldren, a newly formed developer containing members from the original Starfleet Command team, and is scheduled for release this Winter.

The campaign game in Starfleet Command has been redesigned for Starfleet Command Volume II from the ground up to provide for a richer solo gaming experience and will have a totally redesigned fleet control interface. Starfleet Command Volume II will allow the player to experience new races such as the Mirak Star League and the Interstellar Concordium. Along with these new races come their new weapon systems. The Interstellar Concordium have a powerful Plasmatic Pulsar Device to enforce peace on the known powers. The Mirak specialize in missile combat and have the most fearsome missile cruisers ever seen in the Star Trek universe. The Mirak have also upped the ante of fighter combat and the known powers must respond.

Join the United Federation of Planets, the Romulan Star Empire, the Klingon Empire, the Gorn Confederation, the Lyran Star Empire, the Hydran Kingdom, the Interstellar Concordium or the Mirak Star League in Starfleet Command Volume II and vie for control of the galaxy. Every battle will be tracked to determine the political allegiance of hundreds of sectors of territory. Players will gain prestige and rating points to command bigger ships or join task forces to amplify your battle plans!

WON.net and Mplayer will provide matching services for Starfleet Command Volume II that consist of a new element of Drop-In Support that enables multiplayer missions such as Ambush and Rescue.
