Shiren the Wanderer: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island will have a Sumo Power Up, Behemoths & More
Unveiling new details about the roguelike Shiren the Wanderer: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island we get to learn about some interesting features such as the Sumo status, big monsters, and new characters.
Sumo Up
Just as it sounds Shiren will gain further Sumo bonuses when his fullness reaches over 150, but they will disappear when he’s down to 120. With an increase in Attack and HP, he will also be able to bypass traps by crushing them with his Sumo strength, with the downside of preventing him from using items that let him move.

Big Enemies
Another realm with giant monsters called Behemoths can be accessed through mysterious gates. These gates may appear in dungeons and release the Behemoth inside. Behemoths are much stronger than normal monsters, with very high Attack and no weak spots on their front and sides. Players should run the other way if they see them.
Players can test themselves in the Monster Dojo which is a place where players can practice their skills and strategies. The dungeons are simulated by creating dungeons with monsters, items, and traps they have encountered before.

Sacred Items
The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island has a new feature: Sacred Items. These are special equipment with random abilities that are enhanced. They come in two types: Blue and Golden. Golden items are harder to find, and their effects change every time. Some Sacred Items have a rare kind of Rune called Natural Runes, which have unique effects that are not found anywhere else.
