The combat system in the survival-horror Cronos: The New Dawn will be more reminiscent of Resident Evil remakes than Silent Hill 2

During the Xbox Partner Showcase in October, Bloober Team announced its next project - the sci-fi survival-horror Cronos: The New Dawn. Will the battles be similar to Silent Hill 2? No, they won't.

Here's What We Know

In an interview with GamingBolt, the game's producer Jacek Zięba said that when it comes to combat, Cronos is more Resident Evil and less Silent Hill.

The new Resident Evil remakes show us how to combine old-school design with modern technology and gaming standards in a clever way

So, Bloober draws knowledge from these remakes to create something that can be similar and familiar to players on the one hand, and purely unique on the other.

But the authors were also inspired by Dead Space, so we can expect a mixture of the two cult horror series.

When We Can Expect It

Cronos: The New Dawn is scheduled for release in 2025 on PC, Xbox Series, and PlayStation 5.

Flashback

Cronos: The New Dawn is a third-person survival horror game where you will fight fierce battles with numerous enemies and unravel the mysteries of a tangled story about time travel.

The developers promise Eastern European brutality that coexists with retro-futuristic technology, immersing you in a fascinating story that stretches through the past and the future.

In the past, you'll find yourself in a world undergoing The Shift, a catastrophic event that has radically changed the fate of humanity. At the same time, in the devastated lands of the future, every second is a struggle for life with terrifying creatures that will test your speed of reaction and ability to think strategically.

You are a Traveller working for the mysterious Collective, and your task is to search the wastelands of the future for special time rifts that will bring you back to 1980s Poland.

Your mission is to find key people from the past who died during the apocalypse. With the help of the omnipotent Collector, you are able to extract their Essences and take them to the future with you.
