Cronos The New Dawn

Remember when Bloober Team teased a mysterious announcement for Cronos: The New Dawn involving the door, LZRS 28? It may end up being a brand new game, if not DLC or an expansion, titled Cronos: Lazarus.

Universo Nintendo’s ‘Necro’ Felipe reports that it’s part of an event hosted by the Chinese social media app, Jike. Further details are still pending, but it could be ripe for an official worldwide announcement in the coming weeks, especially with State of Play and the Summer Game Fest coming up.

Is it a sequel? Bloober Team famously said there are no plans for the same, and it has several other projects in development, from Project M on the Nintendo Switch 2 to Layers of Fear 3. There’s also Silent Hill 1 Remake, developed in collaboration with Konami following the successful Silent Hill 2 Remake.

An expansion, potentially standalone, is far more likely, that too one continuing the base game’s story, though far be it from Bloober Team to add a replayable mode or other extras for players. Time will tell, so stay tuned for updates.

Cronos: The New Dawn is available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2. It sold 500,000 copies as of October, and has since received a demo and a free update that adds the easier Temporal Diver difficulty. Check out our review of the base game, which we rated a 9 out of 10.
