Borderlands 4: Bloomreaper Update

This looks like some great new content.

Today, 2K and Gearbox Software released the first free raid boss fight for Borderlands 4, Bloomreaper the Invincible, putting skills and builds to the test in an all-new arena, for all Borderlands 4 players.

Players who completed the main Borderlands 4 campaign can now access a new mission from the hub location in each major zone. Bloomreaper the Invincible is the hardest content released to date, designed for endgame players. While there is no strict level requirement, players must have completed the campaign, the encounter is designed to test max level Vault Hunters and reward mastery.

Bloomreaper the Invincible is a rotted, parasitic god. It whispers through its spores, luring surface dwellers into the abyss where their corpses feed its roots. Players must descend into the sinkhole and end Bloomreaper before the corruption spreads across Kairos.

Following a treacherous approach, players will arrive at an open-air plateau surrounded by a vast crater. Rising from the mist-choked depths are towering stone columns topped with grass. These natural platforms form a vertical gauntlet of death. Survival will require agility, momentum, and mastery of the skies as players must grapple from plateau to plateau, glide across yawning gaps, and dodge incoming threats.

Nine powerful new Legendaries—five new pieces of gear, and four new Class Mods—serve as tantalizing rewards for players bold enough to defeat this monstrous foe. However, most of that new loot will only drop if players beat the boss quickly enough in Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode, the amped-up difficulty setting (more details can be found in the Borderlands 4 endgame explainer). As part of the update featuring Bloomreaper, the Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode cap will be raised an additional level.

The Bloomreaper update is just one of the many drops on our post-launch Roadmap. Included in this patch, the Day 90 patch, brings various quality-of-life, bug fixes, and feature updates to Borderlands 4 including a challenging True Mode, which scales the game’s difficulty for a party of four regardless of the party size in-game – making opponents tougher to take down, far more numerous, and adding more Badass elites among their ranks.
