Hello Console Community!
In case you missed it, the Toxoids Species Pack will be released November 21st! And for those of you who asked, here’s the full version of Bangin on Trashcan, Stellaris-style:

We’re here today to talk about the theme and inspiration for the art in the Toxoids Species Pack. The Toxoids are a group of species that would burn the future for the benefit of today. Toxoids are survivors, and will gamble the future for immediate gains.
Sometimes it pays off,
and other times…You wind up in the tank.
Toxoids species are a hardy bunch…
Predisposed to bouts of extreme genetic engineering…
And really demonstrate that “What could possibly go wrong?” attitude that you love to see in a species.
The 15 Toxoids portraits are themed around High Tech Survivalism, Wasteland Toxpunk, and Protective Fashion.
Plus the first robot with clothes, for owners of the Synthetic Dawn Species Pack!
And we would be remiss if we didn’t talk about the Toxoids Shipset, one of our best shipsets to date! Toxoids ships use your empire color for their highlights, so you can get just the perfect colored ooze, from the Mutagenic Spa on Rigel III.
And the DLC ships, Titan (Apocalypse), Colossus (Apocalypse) and Juggernaut (Federations).
A species pack is not born overnight, and a ton of work goes into preparing concept art, sketches and renders before settling on an overall design. I’ve shared a few pieces of concept art below, but you can check out concept art from nearly all the portraits and ships in our Toxoids Art Blast on Artstation.
That’s it for this week folks! Next week we’ll be talking about some of the new species traits coming in the Toxoids Species Pack on November 21st!
