Zero Company recruits a roster of up to 20 Operators per campaign. 12 Specializations have been confirmed — 8 standard and 4 exotic — alongside the named Bespoke companions below.
The Assault pushes into enemy lines, closing distance to put the enemy under immediate pressure. A standard pick for aggressive positioning.
A dual-pistol specialist that excels at quick, consecutive shots. Known for economy of action — kills chain into more actions.
The Heavy trades mobility for sustained firepower, holding angles and suppressing enemy advance with big weapons.
Keeps the squad alive in the field, patching wounds between engagements. Vital on long missions where injuries compound.
Ability details pending public confirmation.
A jack-of-all-trades trained in the galaxy's grey zones — flexible in combat and at home in the underworld operations Zero Company takes on.
Moves fast, spots enemies and sets up the squad's approach. Scouts pay off on missions where positioning decides the fight.
Delivers surgical damage at long range with high critical potential. Pairs naturally with the Den's Longarm weapon upgrades.
The all-round trooper. Soldiers fit any squad composition and are the baseline every other Specialization is measured against.
Exclusive to Tel-Rea Vokoss, the squad's Jedi Padawan. Wields the Force in tactical combat with unique push/pull capabilities.
Exclusive to Cly Kullervo of Clan Verminoth. A Mandalorian-trained combatant bringing elite armor and warrior discipline to the squad.
Custom-built astromech droids that can be recruited as Operators. Their exact combat role is still being documented by the community.
Confirmed recruitable — the 'Angry Beeps' achievement requires a 4-astromech squad on one mission.
The fourth exotic Specialization exists per the '8 standard + 4 exotic' structure, but has not been officially revealed. Listed here so the count is honest — no fabrication.
Status: unannounced by EA/Lucasfilm. Will be updated the moment a reliable source confirms it.
