Red Shotgun Kin are Shotgun Kin variant enemies that appear in Enter the Gungeon, Exit the Gungeon, and Enter the Gungeon: House of the Gundead.
Behaviour
Enter the Gungeon ETG
Red Shotgun Kin slowly walk towards the player, occasionally firing a tight spread of 5 bullets. Upon death, they have a chance to fire 6 bullets in all directions.
Red Shotgun Kin are also one of the few enemies capable of riding in minecarts, and will prioritise walking to available carts over following the player.
Enter the Gungeon XTG
Red Shotgun Kin walk back and forth across the elevator platform, periodically pausing to fire a tight spread of 5 bullets. Unlike their appearance in Enter the Gungeon, Red Shotgun Kin do not fire bullets upon death.
Jetpack Variant
Variants of Red Shotgun Kin using Jetpacks will occasionally spawn, especially in later elevators and elevators with minimal or no floor space. These Shotgun Kin behave mostly the same to their grounded counterparts, slowly flying towards the player and occasionally shooting a shotgun spread of 5 bullets in their direction.
Other Appearances
- A plushie depicting a Red Shotgun Kin was, for a time, sold on the official Devolver Digital Merch Store along with Bullet Kin plushies and an Executioner plushie.
- A Red Shotgun Kin is the subject of Enter the Gungeon Steam Trading Card 7, titled Shotgun.
Notes
- Red Shotgun Kin wield Regular Shotguns.
- ETG If the challenge modifier Final Attack is active, the on-death bullet burst of the Red Shotgun Kin will always trigger, but no extra bullets will be created. This makes Red Shotgun Kin considerably easier to dodge than other enemies with the Final Attack modifier.
- The subtitle "Red, Dead." may be a reference to the phrase people use in real life to determine whether their gun has the safety on.
- Despite the Ammonomicon entry stating that they are the sturdiest and most durable, they have lower health than all other varieties of Shotgun Kin.
- In the Portuguese translation of the game, they are known as Escapeta, a portmanteau of the words "escopeta" (shotgun) and "capeta" (Devil or demon).
- Red Shotgun Kin are currently the only Shotgun Kin type to appear as an enemy in Exit the Gungeon.
