Immortal Superhighway is a single-level Combat research in Star Trek Fleet Command that grants a mission in your Gifts section; completing that mission opens the Immortal Superhighway, the fast-travel route through Immortal space. It unlocks at R&D Department 53, needs 5★ Immortal Offensive Strategies at level 4, and costs 32K R.I. Intelligence.
How to unlock the Immortal Superhighway
- Raise your R&D Department to level 53.
- Research 5★ Immortal Offensive Strategies to level 4. Its first four levels cost 78.3K R.I. Intelligence in total and gate at R&D 51 to 53.
- Research Immortal Superhighway for 32K R.I. Intelligence.
- Open Gifts, claim the superhighway mission and complete it. For this route the mission is Immortal Space Superhighway: a level 51 mission with one stop to investigate a warp anomaly.
Immortal Superhighway requirements and cost
| Research tree | Combat |
|---|---|
| Unlocks at | R&D Department 53 |
| Research required | 5★ Immortal Offensive Strategies 4 |
| Levels | 1 |
| Cost | 32K R.I. Intelligence |
| Base research time | 259 d |
| Stat bonus | None; the reward is the route |
The base research time is before your research-speed bonuses. There is no stat bonus attached, so the value is entirely in the travel time you save once the route is open.
The 5★ Immortal Offensive Strategies prerequisite
This prerequisite line increases base Damage against player targets for all Grade 5+ ships. Only the first four levels are needed for the superhighway, and each one has its own gate:
| Level | Requirements | Cost | Base time |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Immortal Shield Mitigation Reduction 1, R&D 51 | 16.3K R.I. Intelligence | 230.5 d |
| 2 | Immortal Tactical Training 2, R&D 51 | 18K R.I. Intelligence | 230.5 d |
| 3 | R&D 52 | 20K R.I. Intelligence | 244.1 d |
| 4 | Immortal Tactical Training 3, R&D 53 | 24K R.I. Intelligence | 259 d |
The line has requirements of its own: Immortal Shield Mitigation Reduction 1 for level 1, and Immortal Tactical Training at levels 2 and 3 for levels 2 and 4. All of them are paid in R.I. Intelligence.
Starting from nothing in this part of the tree, the whole path costs 184.9K R.I. Intelligence: Immortal Tactical Training levels 1 to 3 (58.3K), Immortal Shield Mitigation Reduction level 1 (16.3K), 5★ Immortal Offensive Strategies levels 1 to 4 (78.3K) and the superhighway itself (32K).
Where R.I. Intelligence comes from
Intelligence is required for some 5★ research, Away Team assignments and refits. You get it by exchanging Raw Intelligence in the Faction Stores, and Raw Intelligence is earned each day by completing Daily Events. Each faction’s version (K.S.G., S31 and R.I. Intelligence) is a separate currency, so progress on one route does not pay for another.
Romulan and Origin Sector superhighways
The Immortal route is separate from the Romulan one. The Romulan superhighway comes from Romulan Warp Current at R&D 64, which grants the ROM Superhighway Unlock mission. The Origin Sector has two routes: Origin & Borg Superhighways at R&D 53, which needs the Immortal, KSG and Section 31 superhighway research first, and Origin Sector Warp Current at R&D 64, which needs all three warp currents and opens the 6★ Origin Sector Superhighway.
Every superhighway research
Superhighways are unlocked in several stages across the research trees. Immortal Superhighway is one of three R&D 53 routes paid in faction intelligence, and all three together are the requirement for Origin & Borg Superhighways.

Is Immortal Superhighway worth it?
Yes once you operate in Immortal space routinely; travel time is a tax on everything you do there, and the prerequisite line raises your damage against player targets with Grade 5+ ships. Its siblings are the KSG Superhighway and the Section 31 Superhighway. The whole branch is on the Combat Research guide.
