A new challenger for theꦺ title of most powerful sci-fi shoulder armor is here, and she's a new hero coming to Endless Dungeon.

The upcoming roguelite tactical action game introduced its latest playable character, Zed, in a new hero spotlight trailer. Each of the characters you control as you plumb the depths of an enigmatic space station has their own reasons for being there; in Zed's case, it's because she was way too hungover after partying at a metal music festival to evade its grasp. Thankfully, she brought her massive shoulder armor and equ🔯ally massive gun, so shꦺe has at least some small chance of shooting her way back out.

, Zed does more damage the faster she takes out foes, can launch a sonic boom of arcing damage, and can activate her Deathmosh ultimate ability to weaken monsters and boost herself. She also dislikes silence, herbal tea, and smooth jazz.

Endless Dungeon is a follow up to Dungeon of the Endless, which shared a similar concept and premise when it came out in 2014. Both are part of the mind-bogglingly broad Endless franchise, which also encompasses the sci-fi civilization building Endless Space series and fantastical 4X strategy game Endless𒈔 Legend.

Endless Dungeon's arrival on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X and S is set ღfor some time this year. If you want to find out more about the lore behind Zed's raꦇd pauldrons before then, you could always give the other Endless games a shot.
