Developers Gamexcite and publisher Daedalic have updated Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown to include the TV show's iconic opening theme after the game shipped with replacement music. The switch has heightened the emotional resonance of the survival-RPG retelling, prompting strong nostalgia among players and reviewers who find familiar moments from the series resurfacing as they play.

  • The original Voyager theme has been added post-launch, replacing the previous in-game soundtrack that some felt lacked the show's identity.
  • Restoring the theme shifts the atmosphere of the game, making scenes land with more poignancy and reminding long-time fans of specific series beats.
  • Critics report the music elicits personal memories tied to the show, underscoring how a single track can change player perception of a licensed adaptation.
  • Across the Unknown remains a survival-focused retelling of Voyager's journey, and the theme addition is a nod to fan expectations for authenticity in licensed games.
