The First Berserker: Khazan's New Trailer Showcases Varied Boss Encounters
New Gameplay Footage Reveals Umbrella-Wielding Boss
The latest gameplay trailer for The First Berserker: Khazan offers players a glimpse into the diverse boss fights awaiting them. During IGN Fan Fest on February 27, 2025, South Korean developer Neople shared footage highlighting Khazan's battles against an umbrella-wielding boss and two formidable beasts.
The umbrella-wielding antagonist appears to play a significant role in the main narrative, as the trailer includes a brief cinematic sequence preceding the combat. Unfortunately, the battle interface was not visible, leaving details about this boss currently unknown. However, the other two bosses were identified as Shactuka, a wolf-like creature, and Specter of Bhangau, a ram-like beast armed with a hammer and spike.
Potential Transformation Mechanic
The trailer suggests Khazan may access an Awakened form, transforming his appearance from his standard samurai aesthetic. In this state, Khazan radiates a red glow while clad in full body armor, gaining access to enhanced attacks wielding various weapons.
While the game already offers multiple combat options, this transformed state significantly amplifies Khazan's offensive capabilities and movement speed. Throughout the trailer, Khazan demonstrates core combat mechanics including projectile blocking, parrying, and executing rapid combos. However, his attacks appear minimally effective against the bosses, with health bars showing limited depletion - underscoring the game's Souls-like inspiration.
Developers have not officially confirmed details about this transformation mechanic, but the trailer suggests Khazan will utilize this form to deliver devastating damage and create extensive weapon combinations.
The First Berserker: Khazan currently offers a free demo on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, allowing players to experience the first two missions. The full game launches on March 27, 2025 across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC platforms.
