The First Berserker: Khazan Trailer Showcases New Boss, Closed Beta Starts October 11th
If you’ve been hungering for a new Souls-like experience, then good news – sign-ups are now available for the closed beta of Nexon’s The First Berserker: Khazan. The hack-and-slash action RPG has also received a new gameplay trailer, highlighting a boss, Viper, going berserk (pun unintended) upon seeing Khazan’s path of destruction.
The story follows Khazan, a heroic general who saved the Pell Los Empire but now finds himself disgraced and exiled. After becoming possessed by the Blade Phantom, he begins a quest for vengeance, battling soldiers, wild creatures, and monsters. Though the gameplay is very Souls-like, you can parry attacks like in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and break unblockable attacks similar to Nioh 2.
The closed beta runs from October 11th to 20th for Xbox Series X/S and PS5. It features the title’s first three chapters, spanning Heinmach, Stormpass and Embars, with three weapon types, Skills for each, gear to unlock and more. Check out our impressions of the beta here.
The First Berserker: Khazan launches in early 2025.
