The First Berserker: Khazan has thrilled fans with a new gameplay trailer unveiled during IGN Fan Fest on February 27, 2025. This trailer provided an exciting glimpse into the game's upcoming boss fights and teased a potential awakened form for the protagonist, Khazan.
New Gameplay Trailer Showcases Umbrella-Wielding Boss
South Korean developer Neople delighted fans by showcasing Khazan battling an intriguing umbrella-wielding boss along with two other formidable beasts. The trailer included a brief cutscene leading into the battle with the umbrella-wielding boss, suggesting its significance within the game's narrative. Unfortunately, the HUD was not visible during the fight, leaving details about this boss shrouded in mystery for now. However, the trailer did identify two other bosses: Shactuka, a wolf-like creature, and the Specter of Bhangau, a ram-like beast armed with a hammer and spike.
Possible Awakened Form
The trailer also hinted at an awakened form for Khazan, showcasing a striking transformation from his usual samurai-like appearance to a more imposing figure encased in full body armor with a striking red glow. This new form allows Khazan to wield a variety of weapons, enhancing his combat capabilities with faster movements and amplified attacks. The trailer highlighted Khazan's combat mechanics, including blocking enemy projectiles, parrying, and executing rapid combos. Despite his prowess, the minimal impact on the bosses' health bars underscores the game's challenging Souls-like elements.
While the developers have not officially confirmed details about this awakened form, the trailer suggests it will enable Khazan to unleash significant damage and perform expansive combos with diverse weaponry.
For those eager to dive into the action, a free demo of The First Berserker: Khazan is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, featuring the first two missions. The full game is slated for release on March 27, 2025, across these platforms.
