Watch On
At this time at Gamescom’s Opening Night time Dwell, Nexon revealed a brand new cinematic and gameplay trailer for The First Berserker: Khazan, an motion RPG with soulslike fight set within the universe of the Dungeon & Fighter sequence.
The First Berserker: Khazan is a revenge story. Initially a raid enemy in Dungeon Fighter On-line, Khazan is reimagined in The First Berserker as a kind of anime Conan. Barbarian-turned-general of the Pell Los empire and slayer of the dragon Hismar, Khazan begins The First Berserker having been betrayed by imperial conspirators after committing the cardinal sin of being too cool and standard. Framed for treason by a jealous emperor, Khazan was banished to the snowy hinterlands. Sadly for the Pell Los emperor, snowy hinterlands are the precise sort of place the place your vengeful enemies can forge themselves into unkillable videogame protagonists.
Someplace alongside the road in his revenge quest, Khazan apparently forges some sort of horrible pact with a “Blade Phantom,” which—judging purely from visuals—appears to let him empower his weaponry together with his personal blood. Or one thing? Both means, it is a helpful ability in case you’ve bought a rating to settle towards a complete empire, and due to The First Berserker’s actually cool, high-detail cel-shaded type, it seems to be sick.
Developer Neople has actually nailed the fight physique language for the fantasy berserker. Khazan strikes and fights like a human battering ram, stringing collectively easy, impactful actions with direct brute power. It makes for a enjoyable visible pairing with The First Berserker’s seemingly soulslike fight, the tempo of which has an nearly Bloodborne-style of head-on aggression.
Gamescom can be the place The First Berserker: Khazan has its first playable demo. The remainder of us must wait a pair extra months for an opportunity to attempt it for ourselves: There will be a closed technical beta take a look at for The First Berserker: Khazan in October.
The First Berserker: Khazan is about to launch someday in 2025.
