Bloober Team’s Grzegorz Like and Jacek Zięba have revealed during an interview with MP1st that the studio’s upcoming horror title Cronos: The New Dawn will feature a New Game Plus mode.
Like simply confirmed “Yes, and you can also change the difficulty to a higher level” when asked if New Game Plus would be featured in the game. Elsewhere, the pair discussed that while Cronos: The New Dawn is strictly a linear horror game, players will still be given a degree of freedom.

It’s hard to answer because we have a time travel story. In the case of structure, it’s linear with moments of freedom, like backtracking, and resolving all the stuff on the level. But still the story will need to go on a proper pace, because we want to say something very specific here.
We thought about doing multiple variations of things, and all that, but after experimenting, we decided to make it more linear because that’s more of a friendly environment for horror stories. Because you don’t want to make it too big, because it wears off, you know? But we still wanted to give the player that kind of feel of choices and all that, so we have dialogue choices, and your choices affect what you see in the game, what souls you have in your collection.
Cronos: The New Dawn was confirmed for a September 5 release date last week, and will also receive a physical edition for the PS5. Elsewhere, the developers revealed that Cronos: The New Dawn will include multiple endings that won’t be easily identified as good or bad.
