Cocijo, the last of eight colossal Thargoid Titans, posed a significant threat, jeopardizing entire star systems and launching widespread invasions. Although their appearance dates back to 2022, the narrative of the Elite Dangerous Thargoid War stretches to 2017, when players first encountered these enigmatic vessels.
