Klingon characters[]

• Completely new tutorial for Klingon characters and new story content for levels 1-20.

Playable Romulan Faction[]

• A new playable faction, the Romulan Republic, became available to players with this expansion.
• The player can choose between Romulan and Reman playable species for this faction.
  • Remans became available as either a C-store unlock, or an account-wide reward for achieving Tier 5 in the Romulan Reputation System.
• New Romulan player-hubs: New Romulus Command and Romulan Flotilla
• Romulan episode content including around 30 exclusively Romulan episodes.
• Around level 10, in the mission “Turning Point”, players have to ally with either the Federation or the Klingon Empire.
  • This choice is permanent, and allows access to some of the ally's equipment and starships.
• Empress Sela and Colonel Hakeev return in the story, including voice-overs by Denise Crosby.
• In addition to their ally's Tier 1-4 ships, Romulan players will be able to fly iconic Romulan warbird class starships. These ships use **Singularity Core engines, and cannot equip standard Warp Core engines.
