Agadon the Hunter, a brand-new enemy replacing the Marauder, is no mere upgrade. This unique foe blends the traits of several bosses, boasting the ability to dodge, evade attacks, and even deflect the Doom Slayer's projectiles. His diverse combo attacks will demand mastery of the sawtooth shield, a mechanic reminiscent of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice—a game that heavily influenced the developers. The Agadon encounter serves as the ultimate test, a final exam showcasing all the skills honed throughout the game.
The decision to retain a challenging boss like the Marauder stems from a belief that players are ready for a significant challenge. However, the developers acknowledge that the Marauder's difficulty wasn't the problem; rather, its presentation and lack of explanation were.

The Marauder's reliance on previously unused mechanics in the campaign caused frustration for some players due to the abrupt shift in gameplay. A smoother introduction of these mechanics and better player preparation aim to rectify this.
