Trivia
- It is codenamed as Hex Penetrator internally. It is an anagram for "Pre XenoThreat" that came up randomly by Mission Designer StarCitizen:Lars den Herder. It was a temporary codename to circumvent dataminers. However, the other developers started using the codename on documentations and it was too late to change it. StarCitizen:Chris Roberts laughed about it and told the mission team to change the codename, unfortunately it was forgotten.<ref name="isc"/>
