Survive the future and save the past

In a sinister world where Eastern European brutalism meets retro-futuristic technology, Cronos: The New Dawn offers a gripping story set halfway between the past and the future.

In the past, you'll discover a world in the grip of the Change, a cataclysmic event that changed humanity forever. As for the future, it will plunge you into a struggle for survival against dangerous abominations that will test your reflexes and tactical thinking in a ravaged and desolate environment.

You are a traveller in the service of the enigmatic Collective, tasked with scouring the wastelands of the future in search of temporal rifts that can take you back to 1980s Poland.

Adapt or die

In a desolate world where danger is ever-present, your survival depends on your ability to strategise and plan ahead. The enemies you encounter are nightmarish creatures, born from the remains of humanity. To defeat them, you'll need to use everything in your arsenal.

You can use temporal anomalies to fight your way through a desolate environment, and you'll need to loot resources to replenish your limited ammunition and supplies. Good preparation will save the day. In combat, split-second decisions will determine your survival.

Don't let them merge

The creatures you kill won't stay dead for very long. To become faster, tougher and deadlier, living enemies can absorb fallen foes in a ghoulish process called fusion.

There's only one way to prevent this. Burn their bodies. As quickly as possible.

If you don't burn them, you'll have to deal with ever-evolving abominations that will push your fighting skills to the limit.

Soul Harvester

Your mission is to locate important individuals from the past who perished in the apocalypse that followed. Using your almighty Harvester, you can extract their Essence so that they can accompany you into the future.

But make no mistake: these Essences will have a profound impact on your journey.

The more you carry, the more your suit will be enchanted, increasing your prowess on the battlefield, but also the whispers in your ears and the blurring of your vision... Each one brings you a little closer to madness.
