Shields down, crew - we have a crisis on our hands. Star Trek: Resurgence, the Telltale-style narrative adventure that only launched in 2023, is being wiped from digital storefronts faster than a phaser set to 'delete,' according to Push Square.

The game has already been axed from Steam - and in true galaxy-brained publisher fashion, developer Bruner House only gave players a few hours' notice after announcing its distribution license was ending. That's not a warning, that's a jump scare.

To buy or not to buy - that is the mission

If you've got any fondness for story-driven adventures in the vein of classic Telltale games, and you happen to enjoy boldly going where no one has gone before, this is your last chance to beam it into your PS5 or PS4 library. Once it's gone, it's gone - and unlike a bad Star Trek reboot, there's no guarantee of a second chance.

Digital delisting events like this one are basically a boss fight where the enemy is time itself. You've got no second save slot, no respawn, and no New Game Plus. Miss the window and you're looking at hunting down physical copies or just watching YouTube walkthroughs forever like some kind of gaming peasant.

The bitter irony of the digital age

Here's the real kicker - this game is barely three years old. It didn't even get to enjoy a full lifecycle before the license pulled the plug. This is exactly the kind of thing that makes the 'you don't really own your games' crowd feel vindicated, and honestly? Hard to argue with them right now.

If you're a Trek fan sitting on the fence, consider this your emergency broadcast. Push Square is pointing players directly to the PlayStation Store listing while it's still active. Warp over there, hit purchase, and at least your library will live long and prosper - even if the game's storefront presence won't.
