Transformations don't play as big a role in Berserk as they do in something like Dragon Ball Z, but they're still an important part of the story. Guts goes wild when his Berserker Armour takes over, for example, and demons like Nosferatu Zodd have a true form that allows them to exert their real strength.

It's pretty cool, then, that Koei Tecmo's upcoming Berserk hack and slasher features character transformations, which can apparently be activated mid-battle. According to Gematsu's translation of the game's official website, transforming improves your attack power and attack speed, giving you the ability to mince dozens of enemies in a single blow. Sounds about right to us.
