Listen up Trekkies! Paramount+ have given us exciting updates on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Prodigy and Lower Decks, including release date and season renewal information!

First up, Captain Pike will return for the Season Two of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, which will be released on 15 June 2023.

Season two of Strange New Worlds includes the previously announced special crossover episode featuring both live-action and animation, and Lower Decks’ Tawny Newsome as Ensign Beckett Mariner and Jack Quaid as Ensign Brad Boimler joining the U.S.S. Enterprise. The episode was directed by Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Picard actor and director Jonathan Frakes.

That’s not all, Strange New Worlds has also been renewed for 10-episode Season Three! Hit it!

Next, we’re going to be rejoining our favourite gang from the lower deckes – Ensigns Boimler, Mariner, Tendi and Rutherfood – for a fourth season of Star Trek: Lower Decks, which will be released this summer.

Plus we’re getting more animated action as the series has been renewed for Season Five, with 10 episodes commissioned.

“Season 4 this summer! Season 5 being written now!” Star Trek: Lower Decks creator Mike McMahan wrote on Twitter after the announcement. “Lower Decks! Lower Decks!

“In Season Four of Star Trek: Lower Decks, an unknown force is destroying starships and threatening galatic peace,” McMahan further teased. “Luckily, the crew of the U.S.S Cerritos isn’t important enough for stuff like that! Instead, Ensigns Mariner, Boimler, Tendi, Rutherford and Provisional Ensign T’Lyn are keeping up with their Starfleet duties, avoiding malevolant computers, and getting stuck in a couple caves – all while encountering new and classic aliens along the way…”

That’s not all, for the kids (and adult kids), Star Trek: Prodigy will also be returning to our screens for Season Two, which will be heading our way this winter.

That’s right — more Star Trek: Prodigy coming in 2023!” Prodigy writer Aaron J. Waltke Tweeted. “Season 2. 20 episodes. Wild surprises. Some of the boldest storytelling we’ve done yet, with familiar faces and new ones. Be sure to spread the word — now is the time to catch up! More viewership means more Trek.”

As previously announced, the fifth and final season of Star Trek: Discover will premiere in early 2024.
