I have the same problem and was initially puzzled. I'm not a gamer and so I didn't immediately noticed the importance of that missing Vulkan error. Vulkan is a low-level graphic API usually supported at the device driver level.
The machine were I tried to test Zed is a very old machine and so its graphic card driver doesn't support Vulkan (my NVidia graphic card on that machine broke and so it's using a device driver for the integrated Intel G33/G31 Express chipset which support DirectX 9.0c). I searched for a Vulkan-to-DirectX 9 translation layer but apparently it doesn't exist. But there is at least a DirectX 12-to-Vulkan translation layer, Dozen (repository).
Conclusion: if the device driver for your graphic card/chipset doesn't support Vulkan (or at least DirectX 12 and you know how to compile and install Dozen translation layer) there is no way to run Zed on such machine at the moment.
Update: apparently there is a translation layer called Ashes that should support DirectX 9 (to 11), according to this chart on Vulkan web site, on Vulkan Porting Layers page:
but from what I understand at a glance it's not transparent, a patch to Zed source is needed to use it.
Update 2: this information is NOT correct. See: Are DirectX 9 and 10 actually supported? #282
Ashes only supports DirectX11, so yes, it's a mistake from Vulkan's website

Description / Steps to reproduce the issue
Proceeded to type:
pacman -S mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-zed
installed succesfully
Expected behavior
Expected to type "zed" on the UCRT64 shell to run Zed.
Actual behavior
Errors showed up when "zed" was typed at the prompt with the following result (I'm including the prompt where I'm trying to reinstall again to ensure nothing was missed, and it did fine and then followed by typing "zed") Also, I see its mentions an unsupported device? I'm including further down my computer info in case this further helps.
