DOOM: The Dark Ages Unveils New Marauder

By ThomasMar 26,2025

Get ready to face a new formidable foe in *DOOM: The Dark Ages*—Agadon the Hunter. This isn't just a souped-up Marauder; Agadon is a unique adversary, blending traits from multiple bosses into one challenging encounter. He can dodge, evade your attacks, and even deflect projectiles thrown by the Doom Slayer. To tackle this beast, you'll need to master a variety of combo attacks and utilize a sawtooth shield, drawing inspiration from *Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice*, a game that has clearly influenced the developers.

Battling Agadon will be the ultimate test of all the skills you've honed throughout the game, essentially serving as your final exam. The developers have not abandoned the idea of introducing a challenging boss like the Marauder. They believe players are eager for an even greater challenge. However, the previous issue wasn't with the difficulty itself, but rather with how it was presented and explained to players.

The Marauder introduced mechanics that were new and not adequately integrated into the campaign, leading to frustration among some players due to the sudden shift in gameplay. To remedy this, the developers are focusing on a smoother introduction of mechanics and better preparing players for what's to come.
