ZeniMax Online Will Not Continue Star Trek Online

FiringSquad contacted the ZeniMax PR office at Bethesda to find out about a possible Star Trek game based on the upcoming movie, and about Star Trek Online.

FiringSquad has learned that publisher Bethesda Softworks, the current owner of the video-PC game rights to the Star Trek franchise, will not be publishing a game based on the upcoming J.J. Abrams directed Star Trek movie. Company spokesperson Pete Hines confirmed this news with FiringSquad today but added, “Really interested in seeing the movie though. If anyone can make that movie awesome, it would be J.J. Abrams.” Hines also stated that Bethesda Softworks’s sister company, the new MMO based developer ZeniMax Online Studios, will not be taking over the development of Star Trek Online, the long-in-development MMO that has recently been let go by its now former developer Perpetual Entertainment. Hines told us, “I don’t believe that is anything that we or ZOS is interested in or actively pursuing. “
