Bloober Team has announced a new sci-fi survival horror game called "Cronos: The New Dawn". Set in a grim, post-apocalyptic future in 1980s Poland, the game follows a "Traveler" agent of the enigmatic Collective who is tasked with extracting the "Essences" of key people from the past who perished in a cataclysmic event known as "The Change".
The game is described as a third-person survival horror experience where players must strategize and plan their moves carefully to defeat the dangerous, mutated creatures that roam the desolate wastelands. Cronos: The New Dawn is Bloober Team's first original IP in the survival horror genre, and is slated for release in 2025 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC.
The announcement trailer provides glimpses of the game's eerie atmosphere, monstrous enemies, and the protagonist's mission to traverse the post-apocalyptic setting and retrieve the Essences of past individuals. Cronos seems to blend the horror elements Bloober Team is known for with a unique sci-fi premise and time travel mechanics.
Cronos: The New Dawn appears to be an intriguing new survival horror title from the studio behind the acclaimed Silent Hill 2 remake. Fans of Bloober Team's work and the survival horror genre will likely be eager to learn more about this new original IP as its 2025 release approaches.
