| - | The game was released by [[Activision]]. On 9th of September 2021, so roughly 19 years later, to honor the occasion of 55 years of Star Trek, the game got re-released on [[GOG]]. In principle, EF 2 is the story line successor of [[Star Trek - Voyager Eliteforce|EF 1]], also based on the Quake 3 engine. The place is no longer called Voyager but Enterprise and the Tricorder is used much more often. A few more weapons, the graphics a bit better, that's EF 2. The gameplay of the singleplayer is much better compared to the first part, especially regarding the puzzles, while the multiplayer has lost some pace. | + | The game was released by [[..: |
