A release on Nintendo's upcoming next-gen platform for Bloober Team's sci-fi survival horror game Cronos: The New Dawn might not be out of the question.

When Cronos: The New Dawn launches next year, it’ll be available on PC and current-gen consoles, and given the sort of visual fidelity that developer Bloober Team is going for once again, it goes without saying that a Nintendo Switch port of the sci-fi survival horror title is impossible at best. That said, can we expect it to release for Nintendo’s upcoming unannounced next-gen console at some point?

According to producer and game director Jacek Zięba, it’s not out of the question. Speaking in a recent interview with GamingBolt, when asked about a potential Switch 2 release for Cronos, though he didn’t offer any concrete confirmations, Zięba didn’t shoot down the possibility either.

“With the current Switch, we saw some wild magic with game ports (The Witcher 3!?), so who know what can be possible on the new one. We will see what future holds,” he said.

Bloober Team has, of course, released multiple titles on the Switch over recent years, including the likes of Layers of Fear, Observer, Blair Witch, and a cloud version of The Medium, so clearly, the studio has enough of an audience on Nintendo’s platform that a Switch 2 version of Cronos at some point seems quite likely.

During the interview, Zięba also spoke with us about Cronos: The New Dawn’s combat and level design, comparing it to Capcom’s modern Resident Evil remakes. Read more on that through here.

Cronos: The New Dawn is due out sometime in 2025 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Our full interview with Zięba will go live soon, so stay tuned for that.
