* ''The Measure of Morality'' Parts 1 and 2 is a crazy love letter to the fans, going down to Excalbia and being forced into a fight of good vs. evil alongside Seven of Nine and a recreation of Michael Burnham and ''Abraham Lincoln''. The fights culminate in a fight against a Seven of Nine who became the Borg Queen, who decides to co-op the Excalbians' abilities and starts to take over. When she creates Assimilated Iconian Herald ships and the I.K.S. ''Annorax'' (among others), what happens? You're greeted by Captain Shon and the ''Enterprise''-F and his friends... the NX-01, the NCC-1701 -- ''Discovery'', ''TOS'' and Kelvin eras, D, and E - ''Defiant'' and ''Voyager'' with the ''Discovery'' dropping in to complete a spaceship version of a SuperSentaiStance!

* ''Time and Tide'': During the mission, you have to rescue several of the Observers who'd come to watch the signing of the Temporal Accords from the attacking Krenim.

* "Capture The Flag". The Romulan flagship RRW ''Llieset'' is boarded by the Vaudwaar, who seem to have the upper hand when the player arrives. But the ''Llieset'''s crew, veterans of the Romulan Civil War, aren't intimidated in the ''slightest''. After all, they've dealt with far worse. The ship's doctor speaks for most of the crew:

** The victory is, naturally, particularly meaningful for a Romulan PlayerCharacter. This is the first mission in a while taking place aboard a Romulan ship or facility, but this time they aren't killing their own, they're fighting off an alien invader. ''And they win''.
** A minor one for the PlayerCharacter. Lieutenant Gaius Selan tells you that among the [[CrazyPrepared thousands of contingency plans he has]] in case the ''Llieset'' is boarded, one of them deals with the specific possibility that ''your'' crew attacks the ''Llieset'', indicating that you are noteworthy enough for him to take note of your ship and crew as a possible threat.

The Iconians couldn't turn her when they kidnapped her and it was obvious she was going to fight to prevent being turned into an Elachi.

* The announcement that Michael Dorn is returning as Worf starting in Season 8. [[http://www.startrek.com/article/first-look-worf-returns-to-trek-we-talk-to-michael-dorn]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqed10FOmL4&list=PL2C5A1C00D626A0C7 The Free to Play trailer qualifies.]] Not just for being really pretty and showing off the game. But also because of the monologue reminding that while this is an era of war, they are still Starfleet officers and their first duty is still the truth.
* To celebrate ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture'' Day, Cryptic released a special Risa-only hoverboard for players based off of Marty [=McFly=]'s hoverboard. They even have a bit of fluff with the Temporal Investigations Agents that revealed that, essentially, Marty and Doc's time traveling shenanigans caused this to happen!
* The 2017 First Contact Day has players hunt down pieces to make a model Phoenix Warp Ship, then make the pieces better to make it fly farther. When you go to launch the rocket, the moment is made even better with Steppenwolf's "Magic Carpet Ride" blasting.
* 2017 saw the ''Miranda''-class starship model revamped to a screen-accurate appearance, along with additional costume parts for the major variants of it seen in ''[=TNG=]'' & ''[=DS9=]'' such as the ''Soyuz'' & ''Saratoga''. Not long afterward, the refit ''Constitution''-class from the [[Creator/WilliamShatner Shatner]]-era movies got the same treatment, much to the delight of fans.
* ''Beyond the Nexus'' is one for the devs, considering the sheer level of effort they put into faithfully reproducing the Galaxy-class interior, even including the not-mission-relevant Ready Room and Conference Room.
* The ''sheer number'' of returning actors from ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'' for the upcoming ''Victory is Life'' expansion. Of the main cast, we have René Auberjonois as Odo, Nana Visitor as Kira, Armin Shimerman as Quark, Aron Eisenberg as Nog (who had already appeared in the Iconian War saga.), and J.G. Hertzler General Martok! Even more, Chase Masterson is back playing Leeta (this time the ''real'' Leeta and not her hologram or her Mirror Universe counterpart) and they got in Max Grodénchik as her husband, Grand Nagus Rom, Bumper Robinson as the Jem'Hadar Dukan'Rex, Salome Jens as the Female Changeling, and they snagged the fandom's biggest requested face with Jeffery Combs, reprising his roles as both Weyoun and Brunt! We may not have gotten a few others, but this is a real boon right here!
* To celebrate the release of House United and its story conclusion, L'Rell herself - Mary Chieffo - gave us a heavy-metal rock number called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOirKrzSVgI&t=1s "Steel and Flame"]]. And not only is it an ''epic'' number, ''it's sung in the original Klingon''.
* One of the greatest things that could happen to a production came true as, on March 3, 2022, the ''Gagarin'', ''Sutherland'', ''Reliant'' and ''Ross''-classes were made canon by appearing in the second season season premiere of ''Series/StarTrekPicard''.

* ''A Step Between Stars'' is one... but not for the player. For the ''Undine and the Iconians''. While trying to save Admiral Tuvok and the scientists trapped on the solar station for the Solanae Dyson Sphere, the player and Tuvok are manipulated into opening an Iconian Gateway by Dr. Cooper, who is a really an Undine in disguise. The gateway leads to the recently disappeared [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration Jenolan Dyson Sphere]] when the Undine outside the sphere burst in and attack the Voth Battleship and the player's ship. The Romulan and KDF Flagships come to your rescue... but all 3 factions are fighting over who gets the Jenolan Sphere. The Federation claims since they had held it for 40 years before it changed locations, it's rightfully theirs. The Klingons argue they've possessed no territory gained from the Joint Command Operations and it's their right to claim the Jenolan Sphere. The Romulans argue since the Solanae Sphere and the gateway network that connects them is now owned by the Romulans this sphere is properly ''their'' space now. Congratulations, the Undine have successfully undermined the alliance that we've been working for the last year or so. But remember whose pulling their stings. The Iconians are the true winners of this battle and no doubt ensured that it was Jenolan that the gateway linked to. Once again, they with one single swipe have started strife across the Alpha Quadrant. The only HopeSpot is Tuvok leading a conference soon to try to resolve this issue.. [[DownerEnding but if it fails...]]
** It's easily missable, but the Undine use their planet-killer beam to blast through the doorway of the Jenolan Dyson Sphere like it's nothing - however as we found out in TNG "Relics" when the Sphere was discovered, the outer shell is composed of carbon-neutronium [[note]] The latter of which is a substance so fantastically hard that all conventional weapons bounce off without effect, even centuries after it's discovery[[/note]]. So therefore, not only did they blast through a ''very'' sturdy material, but the beam retained enough power to blast the Voth Capital Dreadnought into oblivion afterward.
** Much like Operation Gamma, full-scale fleets are a ''distraction'' while we sneak in virtually undetected. But instead of doing so in a shuttlecraft, the player's ship gets the honor, ''flying dangerously close to a'' '''star''' ''and using its damaging energies to work in your favor.''
** Then in the middle of the final fight:

The fights culminate in a fight against a Seven of Nine who became the Borg Queen, who decides to co-op the Excalbians' abilities and starts to take over. When she creates Assimilated Iconian Herald ships and the I.K.S. ''Annorax'', what happens?

* The disaparity between starships from the different time periods is shown repeatedly throughout the game, and even in official ''Star Trek'' canon. A 29th-Century time ship outguns a starship in the 24th and 25th Centuries, which in turn outgun starships from the 23rd. From the moment your TOS captain takes the conn, you successfully engage and beat back attack squadrons of 25th-Century Klingon Birds-Of-Prey and 29th-Century Na'Kuhl in a tiny 23rd-Century utility cruiser, quickly becoming a thorn in the latter's side as you continually foil their attempts to meddle with the timeline.

The Federation claims since they had held it for 40 years before it changed locations, it's rightfully theirs. The Klingons argue they've possessed no territory gained from the Joint Command Operations and it's their right to claim the Jenolan Sphere. The Romulans argue since the Solanae Sphere and the gateway network that connects them is now owned by the Romulans this sphere is properly ''their'' space now. Congratulations, the [[spoiler: Undine]] have successfully undermined the alliance that we've been working for the last year or so. But remember whose pulling their stings. [[spoiler: The Iconians are the true winners of this battle and no doubt ensured that it was Jenolan that the gateway linked to. Once again, they with one single swipe have started strife across the Alpha Quadrant.]] The only HopeSpot is Tuvok leading a conference soon to try to resolve this issue.. [[DownerEnding but if it fails...]]

** Much like Operation Gamma, [[spoiler:full-scale fleets are a ''distraction'' while we sneak in virtually undetected.]] But instead of doing so in a shuttlecraft, the player's ship gets the honor, ''flying dangerously close to a'' '''star''' ''and using its damaging energies to work in your favor.''
