Berserk: Can You Play Farnese?

Farnese – Berserk and the Band of the Hawk

Berserk and the Band of the Hawk incorporates large portions of the story found in the manga and recent anime including characters. One such character is Lady Farnese, the leader of the Holy Iron Chain Knights that Guts encounters during his travels within the kingdom of the Holy See. She’s a standout character thanks to her need to prove herself and the inner turmoil she faces after witnessing the horrors that Guts has already grown numb to.

She appears in the game as an ally from time to time, so many players hoped that she would be unlockable as well. Unfortunately, she is one of the few allies that you won’t be able to take control of, at least not in the base game right now. You can unlock her partner in crime, Serpico, along with several other characters, but Farnese is not among them. It might have to do with the fact that she’s not a very good fighter in the grand scheme of things. Either way, you’ll have to either hope for a DLC that adds her or choose a different favorite character to use.
