Eurogamer had already confirmed it, but now it's official: Star Trek Online is scheduled to launch on Feb. 2, 2010 in North America and Feb. 5 in Europe. If all goes according to plan, we'll be playing the MMO in less than three months. The closed beta began on Oct. 22, so only time will tell if this launch date will hold firm or if the release gets pushed back.

While you wait for the launch of Star Trek Online, you can make sure your PC is able to handle the game. Cryptic released the system requirements today, and it looks like most gamers will easily meet the minimum requirements. Just make sure you have 8GB free on your hard drive by February. You can check out the minimum and recommended system requirements after the jump.
