Part of the additional ten hours of content comes from pilots being able to visit the Okkar Homeworld, where they’ll encounter new types of enemies and new story characters, who will offer individual questlines. This also aims to encourage players who’ve finished the main storyline to come back and find out about what these characters are up to and unveil further secrets hidden in the galaxy.
