Eurogamer just posted a new interview with executive producer Craig Zinkievich for Star Trek Online MMORPG game and here are few excerpts.
Eurogamer: Talking of Klingons: they appear to be a baddie in Star Trek Online. Have they got any friends?
Craig Zinkievich: In 2409, which is when the game takes place, the Khitomer Accord, which is the treaty between the Federation and the Klingons, has broken down. In the years leading up to it, the Alpha Quadrant has escalated to the point where the Klingons and the Federation are at war, so the Klingons are the baddies.
That being said, there are Klingons who are on the Federation side - you can't really make a Star Trek game these days without allowing people to live out their Worf fantasy. There are even missions where the Klingons and the Federation have to work together because other issues are going on. You don't always fight the Klingons, but they are a strong, bad arc throughout the game for the Federation players.
Eurogamer: I see! And forgive my ignorance, but can I be a Klingon?
Craig Zinkievich: Yes! We plan on shipping with the ability to play as Federation and play on the Klingon side. The Klingon gameplay is going to be drastically different to the Federation gameplay. It's going to be a lot more focused on PvP; their advancement is a little bit different - it is not a full-on story-driven game like the Federation.
Eurogamer: You mentioned unlock earlier - are the Klingons going to be available from the start?
Craig Zinkievich: The Klingon gameplay will unlock, but not deep in the game - it will take several hours to unlock the ability to create a Klingon player.

Plus, Star Trek Online made the cover of PC Gamer magazine (below), with four variant covers and a 10-page preview.
