Khaak in X4?

Post by cxz7410 »

Has Egosoft told anything about the Khaak in X4?
Will there be this beautiful race in X4?
Thanks

I somewhat suspect them to be in a DLC as they were in XR. Missing Terran, Boron and Split factions is an indicator.

Well Kha'ak would be much easier to include in the base game than another Commonwealth race as, much like the Xenon, they have just ship and station models and no visual individual embodiment or communications.

This could have been said for XR as well.

I thought more along the lines of withholding some easily implementable content so you can add more stuff for later DLCs. While putting them into the game wouldn't be the hardest thing to do, giving them a good story and background can be more challenging and time consuming while not adding much to the game's technical side.

They didn't made it into XR initially because Egosoft "always" disliked them as a cheap enemy faction.
They made it eventually in as an Easter Egg for the HoL DLC - not really as an important omnipresent faction like in the previous games.
Wouldn't bet for nor against it.
