Mirror of Discovery, Captain Killy Comes to Star Trek Online

Today, Perfect World Entertainment Inc., a leading publisher of free-to-play MMORPGs, and Cryptic Studios announced Mirror of Discovery is now available for Star Trek Online on Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Console players can download the latest update for the free-to-play Star Trek MMORPG and uncover the fate of the Terran Empire’s Captain Killy (voiced by Mary Wiseman ) from the popular CBS television series, Star Trek: Discovery. Xbox One and PlayStation 4 players now have the opportunity to take on the leader of the I.S.S. Discovery herself in brand new missions, which all take place in the universe of Star Trek: Discovery. Mirror of Discovery also introduces an exciting update to the Task Force Operation System and special challenges to celebrate the anniversary of Star Trek Online.

In true Star Trek Online fashion, Mirror of Discovery expands on a pivotal story that was briefly touched on in Star Trek: Discovery. Captain Killy was introduced during the show’s first season, when the crew of the U.S.S. Discovery crossed paths with the Terran Empire and first learned of the cruel Mirror version of Starfleet’s Sylvia Tilly. Though fans had the opportunity to watch Tilly emulate the character, the real Killy never appeared on the small screen, marking Mirror of Discovery as her official debut.

In the first chapter of the continuing saga, Age of Discovery, players teamed up with Ensign Sylvia Tilly in the midst of a brutal war with Klingon forces. The journey continues with Mirror of Discovery, as Starfleet officers travel to the mysterious forest planet of Pahvo to investigate an unusual disturbance. An intense ion storm has enveloped the planet, somehow transporting a group of wanderers from another time period. Among these survivors is Captain Sylvia “Killy” Tilly, from the Terran Empire, who slaughtered her way into the captain’s seat of the I.S.S Discovery. Up until this point, it was assumed that the starship was destroyed by the Klingons at the same time that Starfleet’s U.S.S. Discovery crossed into the Mirror Universe. The fate of Pahvo now lies in the hands of the Federation, who must stop Captain Killy and her remaining crew members from annihilating the planet.
