Last year, South Korean developer Neople revealed that they were developing a new souls-like ARPG based on the Dungeon & Fighter (DNF) series, codenamed "Project AK", developed using the Unreal Engine.
At the recent The Game Awards 2023 (TGA2023), the game titled The First Berserker: Khazan was unveiled, and is planned to be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. However, the exact release date has not been announced yet.
According to Nexon's description of the game,
The Pell Los Empire has been saved—at a cost. 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. In this hardcore action RPG, thrilling combat takes center stage with every step of Khazan’s quest for vengeance against those who orchestrated his downfall, marked by intense, aggressive and ever-changing styles of battle.
To survive the relentless onslaught of antagonistic forces, players must master the art of combat, upgrade character skills and combine weapons and armor—each with unique perks. As players clear more difficult missions, they’ll go head-to-head with intimidating bosses, acquiring powerful gear and abilities to unleash vicious combos and stylish yet brutal take-downs.
