Developer Gamexcite has launched the expansion pass for Star Trek Voyager: Across the Unknown, mapping out a series of content updates scheduled for release throughout the remainder of 2026. The pass is split into four distinct parts, with the first, titled Delta Chronicles, available to players now.

Quick Facts

  • Expansion Pass Price: $29.99 / £25.99.
  • Platform: PC.
  • Current Availability: Delta Chronicles (Part 1) is live; parts two through four are slated for release between September and December 2026.
  • Free Update: Version 1.8 is available now, adding seven ship quest events and various balance improvements.

What Is Included in Delta Chronicles?

The first installment of the expansion pass focuses on iconic Voyager episodes, adding five missions inspired by Distant Origin, The Omega Directive, Homestead, Cold Fire, and Inside Man. Players gain access to two new characters—Engineer Reginald Barclay and Voth Molecular Paleontologist Professor Forra Gegen—who feature unique combat abilities. Additionally, the DLC introduces the Voth City Ship, a potential Ferengi Marauder ally, and six new technologies.

Alongside the paid content, Gamexcite has released a free 1.8 update. This patch includes seven new ship quest events and general bug fixes. The developer has confirmed that these free patches will continue to roll out alongside the expansion pass, with plans for further balancing and a new, currently unannounced game mode.

Looking Ahead to Late 2026

The roadmap for the remainder of the year indicates a steady stream of content. The second part of the expansion pass is scheduled for September and will feature the U.S.S. Equinox, which Gamexcite notes will be exclusive to the upcoming, unrevealed game mode. The final two pieces of DLC are planned for an October-to-December release window, promising further missions, heroes, technologies, and a new sector based on a fan-favorite episode.

While the game has garnered praise for its "what if" scenarios that allow players to alter the course of the U.S.S. Voyager, developer feedback suggests the core experience remains targeted toward series enthusiasts. Gamexcite acknowledged the community's role in the game’s development, noting that support through Discord, bug reporting, and ongoing discussions has been integral to shaping the current and future state of the Delta Quadrant.
