The First Berserker Khazan News

2025

May 9

⚫ Nexon and Neople have announced that The First Berserker: Khazan will receive a major update on May 15, introducing two new boss rush modes under the Ultimate Challenge theme. A follow-up patch is scheduled for late May to early June, bringing additional balance changes, including enhancements to the game’s Phantom Form Mode.

March 27

⚫ Neople has issued an official warning regarding a critical bug in The First Berserker: Khazan tied to the Primeval Regression Orb. The issue occurs when players attempt to reset their level while wearing the pre-order “Hero’s Weapon and Armor” set, which may result in permanent stat loss.

This bug can cause incorrect stat values to display on the status screen, affect Lacrima-based upgrade costs, and potentially reduce stats below the minimum threshold of 10. The problem stems from the +5 stat bonus granted by the pre-order gear interfering with recalculations.

A fix is currently in development, and players are advised to avoid respecing while wearing the Hero set until the patch is live.

March 24

⚫ Neople has deployed a hotfix for the PC version of The First Berserker: Khazan to address a progression-blocking bug affecting early access players. Console versions (PlayStation and Xbox) are also experiencing similar issues, with fixes in development.

As a temporary workaround, players can reload their save data by restarting the game, though the extent of progress loss remains uncertain.
