About
Cronos: The New Dawn is a brutal third-person survival horror where you fight for the future by salvaging the past. Burn monsters before they merge. Extract souls from the living. Adapt or die.

Set in a grim world where Eastern European brutalism meets retro-futurist technology, Cronos: The New Dawn lets you experience a gripping story that straddles the line between past and future.
In the past, you will witness a world in the throes of The Change, a cataclysmic event that forever altered humanity. Meanwhile, in the ravaged wastelands of the future, every moment is a fight for survival against dangerous abominations that will test both your reflexes and your tactical thinking.
You are a Traveler working for the enigmatic Collective, tasked with scouring the wastelands of the future in search of time rifts that will transport you to 1980s-era Poland.

In a desolate world filled with ever-present danger, your survival hinges on your ability to strategize and plan ahead. The enemies you’ll encounter are nightmarish creatures, born from the remnants of humanity – defeating them will require you to make full use of your arsenal.
You can manipulate temporal Anomalies to clear a path through the desolate environment, and will have to scavenge for resources to replenish your limited ammo and supplies. Good preparation is key. Once in battle, split-second decisions can mean the difference between life
and death.
The creatures you kill won’t stay dead for long. Fallen enemies can be absorbed by others — through a grotesque process called Merging — to become faster, tougher, and far deadlier.
The only way to stop them? Burn their bodies. And do it fast.
If you don’t, you’ll face ever-evolving abominations that will push your combat skills to their limits.

Your mission is to locate key people from the past who perished in the ensuing apocalypse. Using your all-powerful Harvester, you can extract their Essences and have them accompany you into the future.
But be wary: these essences have a profound impact on your journey.
The more you carry, the more haunted your suit becomes — increasing your prowess on the battlefield but also bringing with them whispers in your ear and flickers into your vision, edging you ever closer to madness.

Recommended for Survival Horror Fans <3 An original IP that brilliantly combines elements from various survival horror classics—and even throws in some inspiration from other genres. It perfectly blends old-school nostalgia with modern mechanics. The story was gripping, and the challenging gameplay kept me hooked from start to finish. Thank you Bloober Team <3
Hammergeiles Teil. Die Atmosphäre ist genial. Leider schmiert´s immer noch ab. Wenn man ne Radeon Karte verbaut hat. Ich nutze die 9070 XT. Das Problem besteht seit langem. Und AMD hat´s immer noch nicht geschafft . Die Frame Gen sauber mit dem Treiber zu verknüpfen ! Es gibt mehrere Ansätze das Problem zu lösen. Dabei kann man das FR trotzdem genießen. Im Spiel auf´s Menü zurück gehen. Dann die FR wider rausnehmen, abspeichern nicht vergessen ! Fall es doch schon passiert ist. Dabei braucht man nur vom Game aufs Menü zurück gehen. Es startet nicht mehr, ohne Fehler-Meldung ! Beim Steam-Client auf Start- Verhalten DX10/ DX9 eintragen.
I will keep this short and sweet as to not give spoilers. The game sets up a massive sci-fi epic involving a mysterious hive mind, time-traveling agents, and eldritch horrors, only to pivot sharply into a personal melodrama about one "man’s" inability to let go of his lover. I might have given this a recommend if they had tried to achieve the plot pivot intelligently but they couldn't even manage that. Instead the developers made the man (a hyper-intelligent entity) completely incompetent/irrational just so they could get the emotional ending they wanted. And while I am sure that kind of thing works for a lot of people, it's an extremely lazy workaround for a script that couldn't find a way for the hero to win logically. What an epic waste. My time played is for two complete playthroughs (second on Hard difficulty) in order to not only finish up achievements but get the "true ending." In hindsight it was definitely not worth doing. [b]TLDR[/b]: Instead of a war against the future of humanity, we got a domestic dispute across time. Anticlimactic, rushed, and a waste of a great premise.
How the ♥♥♥♥ is this game so good, and why isn't it more popular? Highly recommend it!
O desempenho é muito ruim, seja em full hd, qhd, gráficos baixos, DLSS no modo ultradesempenho a performance é horrivel, e meu notebook roda tranquilo jogos mais pesado como até mesmo o próprio dead space remake e esse aqui n vai de jeito nenhum, extremamente mal otimizado, n recomendo se vcs tem um hardware n tão potente
Estoy sorprendido por todo lo que experimenté, un grandioso juego, merece más reconocimiento en verdad.
喜欢死亡空间这类型的极力推荐。 虽然剧情氛围、地图设计、美术、音乐、枪械射击手感都很棒,但是存在明显的缺点:1.前期资源紧缺,格子危机(前期你升级只能先升仓库格子);2.很多地方堆怪严重,但是地图其他一些区域又很空;3.看到燃油箱,燃气罐很出戏,特别是后期当你习惯了游戏风格,你看到瓶瓶罐罐,你就知道“接下来又是一场大战”,导致后期恐怖感大降;4.怪物融合系统很新颖,但是游戏前期资源奇缺,刷怪点又不熟悉,经常会导致怪物融合,人工造一个“大爹”,导致没办法推进剧情,只能读档。 总结:瑕不掩瑜,这依旧一款很优秀的游戏。
its just ok . nothing scarry about it. the story is weak. im finding myself just running through it to get it finished.
J'ai adoré !! Un mélange de Dead Space et de Resident Evil ! Ambiance trop bien ! Une 20h pour le finir mais 20h de pur plaisir !
