Fans of Dungeon Fighter Online can’t have missed the upcoming action RPG set in the same universe. The First Berserker: Khazan gives players an insight into the world of Arad and the very angry man who created the Berserkers we all know and love. With The First Berserker: Khazan’s release date fast approaching, you better get your parry skills up to snuff if you want to survive.

Set 800 years before the story of Dungeon Fighter Online, The First Berserker: Khazan sets its sights on those who love brutal, unforgiving combat that offers a sense of accomplishment only when you’ve figured out a boss’ timing. Victory depends on practice here. The First Berserker: Khazan is out on March 27, 2025 for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox consoles.

However, fans who want to get extra practice before everyone else can pre-order The First Berserker: Khazan Deluxe Edition. In addition to additional material and perks, the Deluxe Edition of the game unlocks on March 24, giving you three days to hone your fighting skills before the rabble gets to play the game.

Unlike Dungeon Fighter Online, The First Berserker: Khazan is a single-player action RPG that follows the titular Berserker as he escapes from death and seeks to find out why he died and get vengeance on those responsible. The developers promise that it will offer a deep combat system and a steep difficulty curve, forcing players to get good before they can progress through the story.
