[4/10] The First Berserker: Khazan could have been a much better game, but it seems the developers lacked the experience needed to deliver a more polished and cohesive product. The game is filled with odd design choices and an uneven blend of elements borrowed from titles like Dark Souls and Nioh 2, resulting in an experience that feels more frustrating and alienating than rewarding—especially over time.
Fans of the Soulslike genre will likely still give it a shot and may enjoy the challenge simply for what it is: another difficult game. However, if you're new to this type of experience, it's probably best to steer clear and instead try something more refined—like Stellar Blade—which offers a better entry point and a much smoother, more satisfying gameplay experience.

The First Berserker: Khazan launched on March 27, 2025, and as a soulslike fan, I dove into this action RPG with high expectations. Developed by Neople and published by Nexon, this game expands the Dungeon Fighter Online universe with a dark, revenge-driven tale. After spending significant time with it, I can say it's a punishing yet exhilarating ride that shines in combat but stumbles in other areas. Here's my take on this cel-shaded beast of a game. https://hillclimbrace.io/
