After multiple gameplay showcases and deep dives, we finally have a confirmed release date.

Time travel, soul harvesting, and survival horror
Set in a post-apocalyptic world shaped by Eastern European brutalism and retro-futurist tech, Cronos: The New Dawn blends third-person combat with time travel. You play as a Traveller working for the Collective, tasked with finding time rifts that send you back to 1980s Poland.
Using the Harvester, you extract the Essences of key people who died in the apocalypse and bring them into the future. These Essences help you survive against twisted creatures born from humanity’s collapse.

The combat focuses on planning and quick decisions. You’ll need to manage your tools carefully; each fight could be your last.
