Zeik was a high-ranking Bedlam Raider during the Imperial Era. On the planet Koboh, his leader Rayvis ordered him to kill the individual Turgle, who had sold to Rayvis a fake version of a relic that the Gen'Dai required to awaken fallen Jedi Dagan Gera. However, Jedi Knight Cal Kestis intervened, defending Turgle, and killed Zeik outside of Pyloon's Saloon.[2]
Zeik was a Bedlam Raider veteran, easily identifiable by their pronged electroshock weapons and their jetpacks. Though Kestis defeated him, Zeik managed to redirect and parry several of the Jedi's blows before he was cut down.[2]
Behind the scenes
Zeik first appeared in the video game Star Wars Jedi: Survivor developed by Respawn Entertainment[2] and published on April 28, 2023.[3] He was voiced by Hunter Smith,[4] who remained uncredited for the role.[2] Prior to the release of the game, Zeik was first shown in a trailer released on March 20[5] and was first identified in an article by Brian Shea of Game Informer on April 3.[6]
