Bloober Team is doubling down on atmospheric dread with a new set of bundles for Cronos: The New Dawn. If you haven't yet stepped into the shoes of the Traveler to navigate this twisted time-travel narrative, the studio is offering a few new entry points that pair the game with other heavy hitters in the genre.
The Dark Realms Duo
The headline addition here is the "Dark Realms Duo" bundle. This package pairs the industrial, sci-fi nightmare of Cronos with the open-world dark fantasy of Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon. On paper, these might seem like different beasts—one is a third-person survival horror shooter, the other a first-person RPG based on Arthurian legend.
However, the thematic through-line is obvious: both games rely heavily on oppressive atmospheres and worlds in varying states of decay. If you enjoy piecing together lore from the ruins of a civilization, whether it's in a futuristic wasteland or a cursed version of Avalon, this bundle offers a massive amount of narrative depth to chew through.
Expanding the Blooberverse
For players who want to trace the developer's evolution, Cronos is also being bundled with Bloober Team's back catalog. You can now pick up the game alongside titles that defined their psychological horror style:
- The Medium: Explores dual-reality mechanics that likely influenced the temporal shifts in Cronos.
- Observer: System Redux: A cyberpunk detective thriller that shares the gritty, tech-heavy aesthetic found in Cronos' future timeline.
- Layers of Fear: The studio's roots in pure psychological terror.
These collections are essentially a study in how the studio moved from
