In The First Berserker: Khazan, your journey will pit you against a diverse and deadly roster of adversaries. Each significant story mission culminates in a demanding boss encounter, and for those seeking even greater challenges, optional bonus missions unleash even more formidable opponents.
Across the sixteen primary story missions, you’ll face unique boss characters, each with their own fighting style, level of difficulty, and combat mechanics. No two encounters are alike, demanding that players adapt their strategies to overcome each boss’s distinct abilities. This guide provides a comprehensive listing of every main and optional boss within the game, along with helpful recommendations and context for each confrontation.
