Here’s the announcement press release with some additional details:

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. – November 14, 2017 – Today, Perfect World Entertainment Inc., a leading publisher of free-to-play MMORPGs, and Cryptic Studios announced Season 14 – Emergence is now available for Star Trek Online on Xbox One and PlayStation®4. An expansive new colony world awaits console players in the free-to-play MMORPG based on the iconic Star Trek universe. Captains help the Lukari and Kentari defend their homeworld from the genocidal Tzenkethi, alongside Starfleet’s Geordi La Forge, voiced by Star Trek legend LeVar Burton. Players can also discover a new Fleet Holding, take advantage of a new Primary Specialization and for a limited time, gain free access to the Kilt and Skant uniforms from Star Trek: The Next Generation.

The new featured episode “Melting Pot” takes captains to a brand-new colony world in Dranuur, recently established by the Lukari and their long-lost sister species, the Kentari. The two species are joined by Starfleet Captain Geordi La Forge (voiced by LeVar Burton), who is helping them learn to co-exist and rebuild their home planet. Players rejoin La Forge and Kuumarke (voiced by Kipleigh Brown) as they tour the new colony – when a sudden discovery invokes the ire of the marauding Tzenkethi and puts this newly discovered world in terrible danger.

Season 14 – Emergence introduces console captains to several new gameplay features on Xbox One and PlayStation®4. This includes a new colony-based Fleet Holding, two new Fleet defense queues and an all-new Primary Specialization. A full list of new content introduced with this update includes:
