Bloober Team’s latest entry into the horror genre, Cronos: The New Dawn, generated major buzz from the moment it was announced. After the strong reception of Silent Hill 2 Remake, expectations were sky-high, and the game has delivered. The studio confirmed that Cronos: The New Dawn sold over 200,000 copies at launch and has been added to more than one million wishlists. For a brand-new IP, those numbers are staggering.

Cronos has managed to capture fans with its eerie atmosphere, frightening jump scares, and engaging narrative. Considering the relatively small budget, Bloober seems to have another success story. By September 8, just three days after release, sales had already hit 200,000. The studio revealed that the budget was about $27 million, with one million sales needed to break even.

Given such a strong start, the game is expected to continue performing well. It’s shaping up to be both a commercial and critical success, currently holding a “Very Positive” rating on Steam. Meanwhile, horror as a genre is thriving: Silent Hill f is coming soon, Resident Evil 9 is on the horizon, and another Silent Hill remake has already been announced, ensuring horror fans have plenty to look forward to.
