Fans of Star Trek: Discovery may remember the episode ‘’Despite Yourself’’ when the U.S.S. Discovery and its crew were inexplicably warped into the Mirror Universe in the year , while its counterpart, the I.S.S. Discovery, was believed to be destroyed by the Klingons at the same time. Mirror of Discovery opens in the year 2410, when Captains travel to the forest planet of Pahvo amidst an ion storm that transports a group of time travelling survivors from the I.S.S. Discovery.
These events all transpire across two new featured episodes in Star Trek Online, ‘’Para Pacem’’ and ‘’The Illusion of Communication.’’ The missions allow Captains hailing from all of the game’s factions to explore the mysterious woods of Pahvo, while trying to stop Captain Killy from destroying the planet. The update also introduces the new Personal Endeavors System, which offers players daily challenges to complete for account-wide performance boosts.
