Cronos: The New Dawn News

Bloober Team’s story has always been about chasing horror that lingers under your skin. From the psychedelic unease of Layers of Fear to the heavy grief of The Medium, the Polish studio has spent years carving out its place in the genre — sometimes stumbling under ambition, sometimes nailing atmosphere in ways few others can.

Bloober Team’s next foray into the survival horror genre, Cronos: The New Dawn, has been confirmed for the Nintendo Switch 2 and is set to launch this September.

The news was revealed during today’s Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase. Cronos: The New Dawn is not only coming to the Nintendo Switch 2, but its release date for all platforms has now been confirmed. The dystopian survival horror title is described in CGMagazine’s preview as “one of the darkest, most oppressive game worlds I have ever explored”—a notable achievement for a studio already known for reviving Silent Hill 2 on consoles in 2024.
