Dave the Diver publisher Nexon and developer Neople have revealed The First Berserker: Khazan, a single-player action RPG that is the next entry in the long-running Dungeon & Fighter universe. The First Berserker: Khazan stands in stark contrast to the most recent entry in this universe, DNF Duel, a multiplayer fighting game released last year.
Neople says the DNF series combines the fast-paced, higher-energy action of old-school brawlers with classic RPG elements, all wrapped in an anime-esque art style. However, with The First Berserker: Khazan, players can expect hack ‘n’ slash combat and plenty of customization.
Check it out for yourself in The First Berserker: Khazan reveal trailer below:
“The Pell Los Empire has been saved – at a cost,” a press release reads. “After the Great General Khazan and Archmage Ozma defeat the Berserk Dragon Hismar and the Dragon Legion, players will step into the shoes of Khazan as he is falsely accused of treason and exiled beyond the empire.”
Neople says in The First Berserker: Khazan, combat takes center stage in Khazan’s quest for vengeance against those who orchestrated his downfall, “marked by intense, aggressive, and ever-changing styles of battle.”
To survive, players must master combat, upgrade character skills, and combine weapons and armor (each with unique perks). The more missions cleared, the tougher the bosses, but defeating them and finishing missions earns players powerful gear and abilities.
The First Berserker: Khazan will launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC sometime in the future.
