Star Trek: Voyager Across the Unknown Star Trek

Star Trek: Voyager Across the Unknown invites players into a vast expanse of unexplored space, packed with secrets waiting to be uncovered. Among the most rewarding discoveries are the hidden technologies scattered throughout the sectors, each offering strategic advantages and deeper connections to the Voyager narrative.

Unlock Hidden Technologies

Right at the game’s outset, 45 hidden technologies are obscured within the tech tree, represented by question marks that hint at their mysterious nature.

These concealed technologies are sorted into five main categories, reflecting the diverse expertise aboard Voyager:

• 8 Engineering Tech
• 8 Crew Tech
• 14 Science Tech
• 10 Combat Tech
• 5 Borg Tech

Discovery demands thorough exploration of the sector map, paying close attention to every Point of Interest. Unique locations reveal themselves with golden titles, often nodding to iconic Voyager episodes. Sometimes these necessary Points of Interest fail to spawn, which can stall progress. When that happens, restarting the sector and reloading your save usually resolves the issue.

Aside from exploration, many hidden technologies become accessible by progressing through specific side and main missions, integrating story moments with gameplay progression.
