Khazan Boss Fights Highlighted in New Trailer for First Berseker

The First Berserker: Khazan has thrilled fans with a new gameplay trailer revealed during IGN Fan Fest on February 27, 2025. This trailer, shared by South Korean developer Neople, provided a tantalizing glimpse into the game's intense boss battles and hinted at an exciting new feature: an awakened form for the protagonist, Khazan.

New Gameplay Trailer Showcases Umbrella-Wielding Boss

The trailer unveiled three distinct boss fights that players can anticipate. The first featured an intriguing umbrella-wielding adversary, which seems to play a significant role in the narrative, as evidenced by a brief cutscene shown before the confrontation. Though the HUD was not visible during this sequence, leaving some details undisclosed, the other two bosses were identified: Shactuka, a wolf-like beast, and the Specter of Bhangau, a ram-like creature brandishing a hammer and spike.

Possible Awakened Form

A highlight of the trailer was Khazan's transformation into what appears to be an awakened form. This transformation shifts his look from his customary samurai-inspired attire to a more imposing figure enveloped in full body armor and radiating a red glow. This new form not only enhances Khazan's visual impact but also introduces a variety of potent attacks utilizing different weapons.

While The First Berserker: Khazan already offers a range of combat options, this awakened form significantly boosts Khazan's speed and attack power. The trailer showcased the game's combat mechanics, including blocking projectiles, parrying, and executing swift combos. However, it also underscored the game's challenging nature, as Khazan's attacks seemed to inflict minimal damage on the bosses, echoing the Souls-like difficulty that the game embraces.

Although Neople has not officially confirmed details about this awakened form, the trailer suggests it will be a key mechanic for unleashing devastating damage and executing complex combos with diverse weaponry.

For those eager to dive into The First Berserker: Khazan, a free demo is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, allowing players to experience the first two missions. The full game is slated for release on March 27, 2025, on the same platforms.
