A fresh soulslike title, The First Berserker: Khazan, is set to debut this month, and it’s sparked discussions comparing it to FromSoftware’s lineup (notably Bloodborne and Sekiro). While many liken it to these games, I personally find its essence more akin to Team Ninja’s approach in the genre, with Nioh and Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin standing out as particular examples. This similarity seems even stronger based on the Steam Next Fest demo, and according to the game’s director, these Nioh-like qualities are further emphasized in the complete game.
