Perfect World Entertainment is a company I stumbled across about five years ago by taking on the role of a blademaster in the free-to-play MMO, Perfect World International.  I found myself engrossed in the game for quite some time and enjoyed it with several friends.  At the time, that was the major hit that PWE had, but it didn't take long for the company to expand.  Three years ago, Perfect World Entertainment launched Star Trek Online, and the game was met with a great reception from players of the game.  Now, PWE wants to celebrate this landmark with its players in-game with a gigantic Anniversary Event that all players can enjoy.  While there isn't too much in the detail to kno about the event itself, players are sure to enjoy the standard perks and gifts that PWE has been known to give out during these events across all of their titles.

"We've come a long way since Star Trek Online first launched in February 2010," said Daniel Stahl, Executive Producer at Cryptic Studios.

Since the February 2010 launch of Star Trek Online, developer Cryptic Studios has launched a total of seven, expansive Season updates and has worked closely with numerous Star Trek celebrities of note including Leonard Nimoy, Zachary Quinto, Chase Masterson, and Denise Crosby.
