I have the PC version of the game and stumbled upon some STO freebies in the windows store. I was annoyed to find that the freebies were only for the Xbox version of the game. so my question is, will these freebies ever become availible for us PC users?

freebie list:

Star Trek Online: Awakening Verdant pack
contains:
1 Verdant Altamid Plasma Myrmidon ground weapon
12 inventory slots
3 master keys

Star Trek Online: House Divided exclusive verdant Ba'ul weapon pack
contains:
1 verdant Ba'ul antiproton assualt minigun
1 verdant Ba'ul antiproton full auto rifle
1 verdant Ba'ul antiproton wide beam pistol

Star Trek Online: House Reborn verdant pack
contains:
1 verdant zat vash pistol ground weapon
1 experimental ship upgrade token (T6-X)

Star Treking, across the universe. Only going forward because we can't find reverse...

    The PC version of the game has nothing to do with Microsoft. I am sure those freebies were available at some point through Arc or Steam.

    Xbox and ps4 got these exclusive ground weapon freebies (with green vs. blue beams) to promote different new seasons. They are console-exclusive, but nothing special. They are single-character items that can only be claimed once not account unlocks.

    PC has gotten many things over the years that didn't make it to console. It's their turn for once.

    ^^This. PC has indeed had MANY more freebies than console, in due to the fact it's been running longer.
