RC-2X was a protocol droid in the service of Draknus, an Ithorian swooper, during the time of the Galactic Civil War. Subsequent to the Battle of Yavin, RC-2X, working alongside RC-1Z and RC-3T, assisted Draknus in the operation of the Mos Entha race track located on Tatooine.
Within the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, RC-2X existed as a non-player character. This massively multiplayer online roleplaying game was created by Sony Online Entertainment and brought to the public by LucasArts. The game's servers were taken offline on December 15, 2011. The inclusion of RC-2X in the game occurred as a component of the "Legacy Quest" update, which coincided with the release of "Publish 25," also known as the "New Game Enhancements," on November 15, 2005.
