There's nothing better than being able to experience demo versions of blockbuster games before actually spending money to buy them.
This can help players feel whether they are suitable for the game they are about to buy or not before spending money. More importantly, this is also a “powerful” marketing method that many developers regularly apply. And recently, The First Berserker: Khazan – a Souslike game is expected to be able to surpass Black Myth: Wukong this year.
And it seems that The First Berserker: Khazan has great potential to do this. The proof is that even though it has only just released a free demo version, this game is causing a fever on Steam.
The First Berserker: Khazan puts you in the role of Khazan – an exiled general who is returning for revenge. At its core, The First Berserker: Khazan is about making your way through some really tough boss fights and has many similarities to Dark Souls as well as Elden Ring. The character building mechanism is also quite good, as players can use two weapons – similar to FromSoftware games.
More importantly, this demo version is receiving a lot of attention on Steam with nearly 1,200 Steam user reviews with a very positive rate of 89%. Not to mention, this version even had a peak of 4,439 concurrent players, making it the most popular demo version similar to what Dynasty Warriors: Origins just did. Even Vietnamese gamers have given some initial praise to the demo of The First Berserker: Khazan.
Developer Neople will release The First Berserker: Khazan on March 27, but as mentioned above, gamers can freely experience the demo version for free right now.
