Cronos: The New Dawn scares up Dead Space vibes in reveal trailer

If you weren’t scared before, that first World Premiere at the Xbox Partner Preview may have done it. In a very creepy trailer, we saw the first cinematic and gameplay reveal for Cronos: The New Dawn. There’s a lot here that reminds us of Dead Space, but the switch between two worlds makes us wonder if Bloober Team might be playing with their Medium mechanic a little bit. We’ll have to wait for 2025 to know more.

KRAKOW, POLAND – Oct. 17, 2024 – Just a few days after the release of SILENT HILL 2, Bloober Team has announced Cronos: The New Dawn – a brand-new sci-fi survival horror game set to be released in 2025. The game is being developed for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.

Cronos: The New Dawn is Bloober Team’s first original IP in the survival horror genre, marking a significant step forward for the Polish studios’ evolution as the masters of horror, known most recently for the acclaimed SILENT HILL 2 remake.

Cronos: The New Dawn is a twisted time travel story set in an unforgiving post-apocalyptic future in 1980s Poland.

Players will take on the role of a Traveler, an agent of the enigmatic Collective with a mission to extract selected people who didn’t survive the apocalypse from the past.

To complete the Collective’s mission, players will need to survive a deadly wasteland created by a cataclysmic event known as the Change, filled with monstrous abominations that will challenge players’ combat abilities.

“Following the success of Silent Hill 2, we are proud to present Cronos, an exciting new IP from Bloober Team,” said Piotr Babieno, CEO of Bloober Team. “Our commitment to redefining the horror genre continues with this survival horror title, which represents a natural progression of our creative vision and our studio’s strategy. By merging the eerie atmosphere of horror with the boundless potential of science fiction, Cronos promises to deliver a fresh survival experience. We can’t wait to share it with the world in 2025.”

Cronos: The New Dawn is available to Wishlist now. Check it out on Steam, the Microsoft Store, and on the PlayStation store. The game is anticipated to have a rating of M for Mature by the ESRB.
