Raid Episodes Fact Sheet:

Starfleet has lost contact with one of its star bases. More than 400 officers could be lost, including a key member of Starfleet's Borg Task Force. Infiltrate the base and take the fight to the Borg!

  • Retake the Sibiran system and shut down a transwarp conduit being used by the Borg to establish a foothold in the Gamma Orionis Sector Block.
  • Investigate the strange new nanovirus the Borg are using to assimilate entire worlds at alarming speeds.
  • Retake Starbase 89 before it is fully taken overrun by the Borg, and save what is left of the Starfleet personnel that are still there.
  • Locate Captain Ogen's Strike Team and Rebecca Simmons, the lead Borg Task Force researcher working on a cure for the nanovirus. Both went deep into the Borg infected starbase and haven't reported back in quite some time.
  • Infected is an extremely challenging a five-man mission, designed for a full party of players level 43 and higher.
  • Lockstep teamwork and strategy will be required to defeat one of the toughest challenges yet in Star Trek Online.

  • Warp back into your own past, in the hours before the attack on Vega Colony.
  • Discover a base where thousands of Borg drones are being held in stasis. What are the Borg's plans for this hidden army?
