Fourth Galaxies race revealed
LucasArts unveils another playable race that will be featured in the first Star Wars Galaxies online role-playing game. Images inside.
Sony Online and LucasArts have revealed the fourth playable race that will be featured in the first Star Wars Galaxies online role-playing game. The race is the twi'leks, a humanlike species that is identifiable by two large tentacles that grow from the sides of their heads. The twi'leks originated on the planet Ryloth, and their skin coloring ranges from pale white to dark green. Twi-leks are typically nonviolent, but they can become Jedi Knights, crime lords, politicians, pilots, and a wide variety of other professions.
In addition to two concept images for the twi'lek race, LucasArts has released two more images of the human race, which we have posted in the gallery above. For more information about the Star Wars Galaxies games, take a look at our previous coverage and visit the official Star Wars Galaxies Web site.
