Bloober Team hath bestowed upon us a glimpse of its forthcoming IP at the illustrious Future Games Show, presenting an unsettling yet captivating spectacle. “Cronos: The New Dawn” beckons the player, dubbed a Traveler, to traverse the remnants of a post-apocalyptic Poland from the 1980s, yet this be merely the tip of the iceberg. Amidst the desolate ruins of a world undone, Bloober Team’s latest creation weaves a tale of survival intertwined with temporal leaps, promising a harrowing journey unlike any other.
Unveiled in the bygone days of October 2025, “Cronos: The New Dawn” unfolds a narrative entwined with unraveling the enigma that catalyzed the downfall of civilization, whilst combating grotesque monstrosities that haunt the wasteland. The very premise hath stirred discourse since its inception, and now, the latest Dev Diary plunges deep into this dystopian realm.
Journey beyond the confines of time, tasked with averting the apocalyptic calamity of yore (the genesis whereof Blooper Team hath chosen to veil in secrecy.) Travelers, akin to intrepid divers, don the garb of olden diving suits as they dive through the annals of history. Behold humanoid monstrosities, remnants of erstwhile humanity caught in the throes of unspeakable mutations. A plethora of armaments await, along with a jesting nod to the abundance of ladders for ascension.
Wojciech Piejko and Jacek Zieba articulate that the newfangled opus reveres the grandeur of body horror classics, embodying the dread and ambivalence reminiscent of “The Thing.” From the fleeting gameplay glimpses glimpsed in the teaser, the essence of terror seems to have found a sanctuary within this sinister world.
“Cronos: The New Dawn” shall grace the realms of PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S come the year 2025. Bloober Team, revered for their haunting creations such as “The Medium,” “Observer,” and the recreation of “Silent Hill 2,” beckons forth horror aficionados and devotees of their oeuvre to keep vigil for this impending masterpiece.
