The Gunreaper is an enemy that appears in Enter the Gungeon.

Behaviour

Gunreapers float slowly towards the player, periodically pausing to swing their massive gun-scythe, creating a wave of homing bullets in the players direction.

Gunreapers are immune to all forms of damage, but will dissolve once all other enemies in the room have been slain. Because the Gunreaper is invincible, it can block the player's projectiles without consequence, potentially allowing other enemies to take cover behind it.

Other Appearances

A Gunreaper appears in early key art for Enter the Gungeon, illustrated by Maximo Lorenzo.
A T-Shirt called the GTD Cultist Tee (GTD standing for Glow (in) The Dark) was for a time sold on the official Devolver Digital merchandise store. This shirt featured a unique neon-coloured depiction of a Gunreaper, hovering in front of an Eye of Providence. The illustration was created by John Cipriani.

Unused and Cut Content

Exit the Gungeon does not have Steam trading cards, however a collection of trading card portraits was created by XTG artist contributor Miroko, but never used. The second of these unused XTG trading cards depicted a Gunreaper.

Notes

Gunreapers are completely invulnerable to regular sources of damage, but are still vulnerable to transmogrification effects like the Witch Pistol and Snakemaker. They can also be killed by the Partially-Eaten Cheese and the soulburn effect of the High Kaliber.
Despite being invulnerable, Gunreapers can still be frozen, stunned, encheesed, and charmed.
If a Gunreaper spawns as the only enemy in a room (usually due to a timed spawn where the other enemies were killed very quickly) it will immediately vanish without firing a shot. It can still deal contact damage during its spawn animation.
