It's the day of, now, and there's still no news post about it. Not even a hint from social media. I've been getting increasingly worried there won't be a bundle this year. I hope I'm wrong.
Edit: I also completely goofed and forgot Cryptic tends to release anniversary bundles about a month or so after the anniversary event goes live.
Yea... and I have a hunch I know what might be in it based on in game clues.
Do tell! What's your theory?

I've been wrong in the past. However the clues are there based on past history. Beyond that, I'm not comfortable sharing just yet. Suffice to say if I am right, I will elaborate on how I came to my theory.

Furthermore, have you heard anything about this year's recruitments?

They'll run like they have the past few years.

Sure, but which one?
All of them eventually. No new ones, just cycling through the existing ones. You can look at the history in the wikis to guess which one will come next.
I remember that oft-stated joke that Cryptic would release playable Borg ships (of the geometric design) only at the end of the game's life...given what's happened lately, if they actually release Borg ships, that would be a very bad sign.
A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"
"It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch." "We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"
Passion and Serenity are one.
I gain power by understanding both.

As far as I remember, the Anniversary Bundle is never released in conjunction with the Anniversary event. It's toward the end of it... You may have a few weeks yet before it runs...
Just a thought...

They really should do a new New Orleans class because the original didn't get full special spec nor the abilities, otherwise update the existing to include the abilities.
I stream on Twitch, look for Avoozl_

I'm thinking Niagara, Freedom, Challenger and Springfield are clues...
While i would love to see those ships in the TFO playable in-game, i feel that the wolf 359 kitbash brigade is a bit too obscure for an anniversary pack
This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.
Surely it's going to be some combo of Freedom, Challenger, Niagara, Constellation/Cheyenne and Springfield, with 2410 variants - I could be wrong of course, but that seems the most obvious answer to me given that the models for the 359-era versions at least are there already.
With the current content one would think Wolf359 pack or the Fleet Museum pack.
First one has little known models (unless you're an official Bona Fide Star Trek Encyclopedia ) and the second one has models already in the game.
Other option is the named ships from Frontier Day, but those are already ingame.
Time will tell.

I really hope the T6 Cheyanne/Constellation isn't too engi heavy like the T5.
I'll play devil's advocate: Is that a bad thing these days with isomag consoles?

Seen come comments that we should be getting the first previews of the ships included in the anniversary bundle later this week based upon schedules from previous years.
It'll be interesting.
There is the revamp of the wolf 359 kitbash models to be included in the TFO. There are comments that this means 14th bundle will be a wolf 359 bundle.
While i like a number of those old fleet credit ships, i feel they are too unknown to the larger public to base an anniversary bundle upon, Time will tell.
Heck it could be a Picard frontier day pack when it stays in character or confederation versions of known ships.

A bundle commemorating the ships which fought at Wolf 359 is a wonderful idea! And here's hoping Cryptic releases this in two versions as well. A full on version which has all the ships. As well as a "Lite" version which has the ships which I do not already have access to.

Thank you very much! That's good to know.

But since we already have 6 Vesta's and a legendary seventh, I doubt that's going to be it.
So... Borg ships? They said they were close to figuring out how to let us fly them.

You're thinking too recent on history. Think a bit more abstract, and farther back, and compare Binary Stars to Wolf 359.
While i would love to see those ships in the TFO playable in-game, i feel that the wolf 359 kitbash brigade is a bit too obscure for an anniversary pack
So... A Wolf 359 bundle? Or a bundle including the STO-ships that were shown in that one Picard scene of season 3?
I'm still hoping it's Borg ships. Not because I want those, but because it's more interesting than those alternatives.
Also hoping for a T6 Springfield & T6 Freedom.
We already got two T6 Nebulas. The Sutherland and the Monitor Carrier.
First one has little known models (unless you're an official Bona Fide Star Trek Encyclopedia ) and the second one has models already in the game.
Other option is the named ships from Frontier Day, but those are already ingame.
