The First Berserker: Khazan is an action RPG in the spirit of the Dark Souls series. The title references the manga and anime «Berserker», and the developers were indeed inspired by the work of Kentaro Miura. At the same time, the action of Khazan takes place in the universe of Dungeon Fighter Online. At Tokyo Game Show 2024, our editor-in-chief Rodion Ilyin spoke with Khagino, the technical director of the project, to understand the details. Alas, the developer was in a hurry, and the interview session turned out to be short (in addition, the developer communicated through a translator, which also delayed the process), but we still managed to get some information.
