This is the third major update in six months that adds

What
is Species?
Exocortex
Species simplifies the process of human character creation
from designing your character’s unique attributes, integrating
sculpting results, to rig creation, even animation. With
Species, you will create higher quality animated characters
faster and at a lower cost, while avoiding the generic look
that often come when purchasing off-the-shelf models.

licenses are available starting at $299.
