Ziggurat Interactive today announced that Mara Junot is part of the voice cast for its upcoming game Slave Zero X. Junot's past game voice credits include God of War Ragnarök, Destiny 2, and Diablo Immortal.

In Slave Zero X, Junot plays Enyo, a member of a group of villains called the Five Calamities. "A firearms expert, born of a life as a mercenary and a deep understanding of the mechanics and maintenance of her weaponry, her Exo-Suit and her training also give her unrivaled mobility to get to n 'any point of view,' says Ziggurat.

Slave Zero X is a prequel to Slave Zero, a 1999 action game released on Dreamcast and PC. While the original is a third-person shooter, the new game is more of a side-scrolling hack-and-slash affair with 2.5D graphics. It uses 2D pixel characters on 3D backgrounds.

The title is expected to be released sometime in 2023.
