Yesterday, BioWare released a trailer for their upcoming SWTOR companion character HK-51. This HK unit is a newer model of the infamous HK-47 from Knights of the Old Republic. I dare say he was one of the most entertaining video game characters ever created.
In the post, they say HK-51 is coming 'very soon.' I'm thinking that means he will be a part of the 1.4 patch. There is also a new world event coming up which focuses on finding some stuff too, so could that be a lead in to the HK-51 quest line?
Some HK-51 notes:
- Same voice actor from the KoTOR games
- HK-51 is obtainable by both sides
- You'll need a 50 on one side and a mid level character from the other to obtain him
- Supposed to have different dialog for each class/side
- Tied to legacy, so you shouldn't have to redo the quest for every character
Not familiar with HK-47?
And the new trailer...
