Don’t Miss Out on 35 Thrilling Minutes of Cronos: The New Dawn

Unveiled: Cronos: The New Dawn – Post-Apocalyptic Horror with Tense Combat and Resource Management

Bloober Team recently unveiled a 35-minute video for their upcoming horror and survival game, Cronos: The New Dawn. This production diary entry offers a glimpse into various aspects of the game, highlighting its atmosphere and core mechanics, with a focus on exploration, tense combat, and resource management. Set in a post-apocalyptic world reminiscent of 1980s Poland, the game’s unique visual identity incorporates retrofuturistic architecture and an oppressive atmosphere. Its setting draws inspiration from real locations, such as the former Huta im. Lenina factory in Nowa Huta, a neighborhood in Kraków. The development team aimed to capture a sense of industrial decay and destruction, with time travel adding fragmented areas that blend past and future. Players assume the role of an agent from an organization who travels through time to save important figures before they disappear. Combat, in particular, emphasizes urgency and danger due to limited resources, a lack of a dodge button, and finite ammo. Players must strategically manage their supplies and swiftly eliminate enemy bodies. This is crucial because Orphans—creatures that merge into stronger entities—can snatch fallen enemies if players do not eliminate them quickly. This dynamic makes fights riskier and demands split-second decisions.
