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.

наиграв 4 часа в Cronos: The New Dawn могу сказать свой вердикт об этой игре. в 1 минуты игра уже начинает цеплять своей атмосферой система с зарядкой пистолета очень хорошая и позволяет тратить меньше боеприпасов враги очень классно сделаны у кого-то броня кто-то вообще на стенке висит и языком душит по минусам инвентарь очень маленький из за этого ты чаще заходишь в ящик даже проходя ре 2 я не открыл ящик ни разу оптимизация ну она плоховата ну так то это минус практически любой игры 25-26 года

i love bloober team
story 10 out of 10
)
Не знаю, что всем не нравится, хорошая игра, более-менее норм сюжет. Да, вязкая и растянутая, да, не сильно страшная и вообще не Dead Space. Но какой графон и антураж и локации, ммм (любимый падик в 2007), атмосферно, лайк. Ждём DLC.
Overall I really enjoyed this game. The standout is definitely the atmosphere. The horror atmosphere Bloober team created is really second to none. Walking through these abandoned buildings is quite something and I would purposefully not sprint through them since they were so atmospheric. The sound design also really builds on this. You are a walking suit of 100 kg armour and you feel like it. With the thumps of your boots really making you feel like a walking tank. The story is good but a little to convoluted for its own good. I did get it and I did enjoy it but I feel like some things were left either unexplained or to open ended (sequel bait?) The areas you play through are always good but there are clearly better areas then others. Especially [spoiler] The hospital and the church [/spoiler] were highlights of level design. I especially enjoyed the moments where the game did not have mercy on you. I played on normal difficulty and I would sometimes find myself with no ammo and a room full of orphans in front of me. Buttcheeks were clenched. My biggest gripe with this game were boss fights. They are okay but not good, while the final bossfight was the most frustrating experience of the game for me. TLDR; If you enjoy games like RE or Dead Space, then you should definitly gives this gama a try. I enjoyed my time with it, the atmosphere being a real highlight. Outside of some bad boss design (especially with the final one) the gameplay is fun and combat feels weighty and impactfull. I will be very excited for what comes next for Bloober and will be awaiting the DLC.
Давно не играл в такие survival horror/sci-fi игры. После спайсового деда и калисту : протокол думал, что меня уже не напугать, но Кронос доказал обратное. Больше 1-2 часов играть не вывожу. Возможно, дело в постсоветской разрухе и в панельках, которая активирует скрытый дебафф "тревожность +10". Но одно знаю точно: это один из лучших survival horror за долгое время.
