For fans of hardcore action role-playing games, Neople's *The First Berserker: Khazan* offers an immersive experience that's hard to beat. You step into the boots of a legendary general, wrongfully accused of treason, on a quest for justice for his fallen comrades and himself. To maximize your gameplay from the get-go, knowing how to claim your pre-order items is crucial. This guide is here to walk you through that process.
How to Claim Pre-Order Items in The First Berserker: Khazan
While some pre-order bonuses might only be cosmetic, the gear items in *The First Berserker: Khazan* are notably powerful, enhancing your early gameplay significantly. However, you'll need to dive deeper into the game before you can claim these rewards.
To access your pre-order items, you must first complete the initial two main missions, namely Mount Heimach and Stormpass. This involves defeating formidable bosses like Yetuga and the Blade Phantom, which will grant you access to the hub area known as The Crevice.
After defeating the Blade Phantom, use the glowing sword to teleport Khazan to The Crevice, where the storyline will further unfold. Once you regain control of your hero, head towards the giant tablet near where the Blade Phantom was defeated. Just behind this tablet, against the wall, you'll spot a glowing barrel. Interact with it to claim your pre-order items, available whether you've opted for the Standard or Deluxe edition.
