If you're a fan of hardcore action role-playing games, Neople's *The First Berserker: Khazan* is a title you won't want to miss. This stylish game casts you as a legendary general, wrongfully accused of treason, on a quest for justice for your fallen comrades and yourself. To aid in this quest, claiming pre-order items can give you a significant advantage. Here's a detailed guide on how to claim these items in *The First Berserker: Khazan*.
How to Claim Pre-Order Items in The First Berserker: Khazan
While some pre-order bonuses may only be cosmetic, the gear items in *The First Berserker: Khazan* are exceptionally powerful. To claim them, you'll need to progress through the game. Begin by completing the first two main missions, Mount Heimach and Stormpass. This journey will lead you to defeat Yetuga and the Blade Phantom, unlocking access to the hub area known as The Crevice.
After defeating the Blade Phantom, use the glowing sword to teleport Khazan into The Crevice, where the story continues to unfold. Once you regain control of your hero, navigate to the giant tablet near the Blade Phantom and look just behind it. You'll find a glowing barrel against the wall; interact with it to claim your pre-order items, available for both the Standard and Deluxe editions.
