Borderlands 4

Dual bosses that fight together, with the death of one empowering the other, have always stood out from all the others we’ve taken down over the decades. Ornstein and Smough immediately come to mind, as do the Demon Princes, among others.

Well, we’re getting another memorable addition to that list of great fights, as the upcoming Update 1.7 for Borderlands 4 is bringing a new Raid boss to the table. The Subjugator hovers above you, dealing damage from a distance when you begin the battle, before it retreats to let Thol the Invincible take the center stage. They’re going to take turns trying to rid themselves of you, before the demise of one empowers the other, giving it new attacks and a major boost to its powers.

You might want to be strategic about taking down either of them, choosing the right moment to ensure you keep the fight as manageable as possible. They’re endgame enemies after all, and are not to be taken lightly. Beating them comes with a bunch of rewards you’ll want to grab. The official announcement on Steam comes with a lot of other cool additions that you’re going to want to check out when the update drops.

From the looks of it, the new update could make Borderlands 4 as addictive as it’s ever been.
