GameSamba announced their second closed beta test of the upcoming free-to-play online strategy game, Star Trek: Alien Domain will end on February 6th.

Taking place after the events of Star Trek: VoyagerStar Trek: Alien Domain will have players controlling a new Federation or Klingon captain trapped in the unexplored realm of fluidic space.

Players will face numerous threats - including Species 8472 - encounter new hostile creatures and species, and be forced to deal with a war between the trapped Klingon and Federation forces.

This second closed beta test will include several features that have been added or improved based on player feedback from the first closed beta, including officer progression, a new weapon upgrade system, and earlier unlocks in the gameplay cycle for more features.

Anyone who creates a free GameSamba account will be able to participate, since no closed beta key is required for this test period.

In addition to this test, a series of beta events are scheduled to begin with the launch of the new test and players can receive awards which can be used in the future full release.

In honor of the game's beta testing phase, a trailer of the game and images has been released, which are available in the gallery below.
