OTOY, Roddenberry Entertainment, and Paramount Game Studios are thrilled to launch a major expansion of “The Archive” for Apple Vision Pro: featuring the project’s first fully explorable Klingon ship interiors, the bridge of the U.S.S. Discovery and brand new sections of the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Promenade
LOS ANGELES, CA – April 5th, 2024
In conjunction with the premiere of Star Trek: Discovery Season 5, OTOY, Roddenberry Entertainment, and Paramount Game Studios are proud to unveil the first major expansion of The Roddenberry Archive following its acclaimed public launch on the Apple Vision Pro in February.
Today’s expansion lets fans walk onto the bridge of the U.S.S. Discovery (from Star Trek: Discovery), step into the world of Klingon culture aboard the I.K.S. Amar (the Klingon K’t’inga class battlecruiser seen in the opening of Star Trek: The Motion Picture) and explore the furthest reaches of the Promenade from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine – each with unprecedented levels of visual immersion and historical fidelity.
The release is accompanied by an all-new mini-documentary narrated by Armin Shimerman, who played Quark in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, walking audiences through the creation of the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine using a never before seen virtual recreation of the iconic multi-story Promenade set – the largest interior set ever built for Star Trek, encompassing the entire Stage 17 lot at Paramount Studios.
The Roddenberry Archive is also adding over a half-dozen new iconic Star Trek 3D ship models from every era of the franchise:
I.K.S. Amar ship, bridge, and command consoles:
.
Khan’s S.S. Botany Bay
Orbital Drydock Facility from Star Trek: The Motion Picture
Orbital Space Office Complex from Star Trek: The Motion Picture
Regula I from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Spacedock One – from Star Trek III: The Search For Spock
The Roddenberry Archive’s newest release is available for the public to view at https://roddenberry.x.io. For a limited time, the complete experience is available for free on both the web and Apple Vision Pro. Later this year, OTOY and Paramount will offer users unlimited viewing time and a-la-carte access to all current and future immersive Star Trek 3D experiences released through The Archive.
All Apple Vision Pro spatial videos were rendered by thousands of high-performance decentralized GPUs on the Render Network.
