A new enemy force, the Tzenkethi, is coming to Star Trek Online<\/em> on P.C. in Season Twelve.<\/p>\n

The Tzenkethi “are a force that can match any member of the Alliance. They’re a militant warp-capable species, and they’re highly intelligent. From the beginning, we knew we wanted a fight with the Tzenkethi to be a fight you could get better at by knowing more about them. Your first fight with them will probably be your most difficult one.”<\/p>\n

Character Artist Joe Jing<\/strong> explained the difficulty of creating this formidable foe.<\/p>\n

“These guys were absolutely one of the most challenging of any of STO<\/em> species \u2013 in the ranks of difficulty comparable to the Bluegills and Undine,” he said. “Because of the extra arms, tail, and extreme body proportions, there was a lot of back and forth, revisions, and collaboration across many departments throughout the process before it came to the final game versions”<\/p>\n

“The reptilian-type Tzenkethi have “dragon-like heads, rhino-like skin and four arms,” said Jing. ” Two arms are really strong and two are weaker for nimble, precise handling. Their backs have a set of bony plaques that give the impression of a turtle-like shell, giving these already powerful creatures one less weak spot. Fully armored, each individual Tzenkethi resembles a walking weapons platform.”<\/p>\n
