The First Berserker: Khazan's latest gameplay trailer reveals thrilling boss encounters and hints at a powerful awakened form for the protagonist. Read on to uncover details about the showcased battles and potential mechanics of this new transformation.
The First Berserker: Khazan's New Trailer Showcases Diverse Boss Fights
An Umbrella-Wielding Boss and More
A recently released gameplay trailer, premiered during IGN Fan Fest on February 27, 2025, offers a glimpse into the challenging boss fights awaiting players in The First Berserker: Khazan. The footage showcases Khazan battling a striking umbrella-wielding boss, along with two other formidable beasts: Shactuka, a wolf-like creature, and the hammer and spike-wielding Specter of Bhangau.
The umbrella-wielding boss appears to be a significant character within the main storyline, as the trailer includes a brief cutscene preceding the fight. Unfortunately, the HUD was obscured during the battle sequence, preventing a detailed analysis of its mechanics.
Khazan's Awakened Form: A Spectacle of Power
The trailer also teases a spectacular transformation for Khazan—an awakened form. This altered state sees Khazan shedding his traditional samurai aesthetic for a red-glowing, full-body armored appearance, granting him access to a wider array of devastating attacks and enhanced speed.
While Khazan’s standard arsenal is already impressive, this awakened form significantly amplifies his combat capabilities. The trailer highlights his mastery of various combat techniques, including blocking projectiles, parrying attacks, and executing rapid-fire combos. However, the bosses’ health bars suggest that even these enhanced attacks inflict only moderate damage, hinting at the game’s Souls-like challenge.
While developers haven't officially confirmed details about this awakened form, the trailer strongly suggests it will be a crucial mechanic for unleashing immense damage and executing extended, devastating combos using diverse weapons.
The First Berserker: Khazan 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, on these same platforms.
