The Star Trek license is expanding into the land of tabletop gaming via WizKids' HeroClix line, according to a press release from the gaming company. The games will be both physical, collectible HeroClix figures and "digital" games as well, related to the HeroClix franchise.
The license agreement with CBS Consumer Products allows the games to pull from all of the television shows and feature films, spanning over 40 years of characters, vehicles, and more.
"Star Trek changed the way people think about the future,” said WizKids/NECA President Lax Chandra in the press release. “We are thrilled at the opportunity to marry our innovative game design and exceptional miniatures with the incredibly rich Star Trek franchise. We believe HeroClix and the Star Trek Universe are ideally suited for cooperative gaming and table top miniature simulation and will speak to gamers in a new and compelling way.”
The first of the games will be coming Holiday Season 2010, and expansions, a key to HeroClix, are promised soon after.
