Bethesda Softworks has revealed two new Star Trek games, the often-rumoured RTS Legacy for Xbox 360 and PC, while the action driven Tactical Assault will appear on PSP and DS.

After a messy legal scuffle between Trek license holders Viacom and developer Activision, the rights to produce games from the entire history of Trek has passed to publisher Bethesda, just in time for the 40th anniversary of the TV series.

As shown in these two screens Star Trek: Legacy will drop gamers into an Admiral's chair allowing them to command a task fleet of ships on a number of bold missions spanning stories from the original show right up to the Enterprise era.

With large and small scale battles, the Mad Doc Software developed game will also include numerous multiplayer options, online stat tracking and a lovely range of primary hued jumpsuits.

Less has been revealed about Tactical Assault so far with developer Quicksilver Software promising that the game will feature Federation and Klingon single player campaigns as well as head to head Wi-Fi battles on both formats.

Star Trek: Legacy will engage players on PC and Xbox 360 from this September while Star Trek: Tactical Assault will materialise on PSP and DS later this year.
