In a world where 2D and 3D coexist, The First Berserker: Khazan is set to revolutionize the dark fantasy genre. At the Tokyo Game Show 2024, I had the privilege of experiencing the game firsthand, accompanied by Creative Director Lee Joon-ho and Art Director Lee Gyu-cheol. Our conversation delved into the world of Khazan, a game that represents a new era in dark action games.
The Inspiration behind Khazan

For Lee Joon-ho, the creative director, the idea of Khazan was sparked by a variety of games, including Monster Hunter, Dark Souls, and Sekiro. "We wanted to create a game that would appeal to players who enjoy action-packed games," he explained. "We wanted to combine the best elements of these games and create something new and unique."
The Evolution from 2D to 3D

The transition from 2D to 3D was not an easy task. "In 2D games, players can only move left and right, but in 3D, we can use all three axes of movement," said Lee Joon-ho. "We wanted to create a game that would challenge players and provide a sense of immersion." The camera system in Khazan follows the player’s character, allowing for a more realistic and immersive experience.
The Challenge of Balance

However, achieving balance in Khazan was no easy task. "The game is designed to be challenging, but not frustratingly so," said Lee Joon-ho. "We want players to feel a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction when they overcome difficult obstacles." To achieve this, the team implemented a leveling system, skill trees, and a variety of defense options.
The Final Product

I had the opportunity to play the game, investing approximately 45 minutes of my time. After 25 minutes of trial and error, I finally defeated the boss, a giant wyvern. The game requires players to master various skills, including dodging and blocking attacks. "Players must find the right timing to dodge and block attacks," said Lee Joon-ho. "However, we believe that this will provide a good starting point for players to develop their own strategies."
The Future of Dark Action Games
The First Berserker: Khazan is set to release in 2025 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. The beta test is scheduled to begin in mid-October. With its unique blend of dark fantasy and action-packed gameplay, Khazan is poised to revolutionize the genre and set a new standard for dark action games.
