Viz Media, the studio behind the North American release of Berserk: The Golden Age summarizes the story as:
The lone mercenary Guts travels to a land where a century-old war is raging. His ferocity and skill in battle attract the attention of Griffith, the leader of a group of mercenaries called the Band of the Hawk. Guts becomes Griffith’s closest ally and confidant, but despite all their victories, Guts begins to question why he fights for another man’s dream of ruling his own kingdom. Unknown to Guts, Griffith’s unyielding ambition is about to bestow a horrible fate on them both.
Part of the reason behind the Berserk: The Golden Age Arc – Memorial Edition recut is to honor the late mangaka Kentaro Miura who passed away in May 2021.
