Throughout this adventure, you will uncover dark secrets of the Collective, fight hordes of monsters using new weapons and abilities like teleportation and decoy holograms, and fend off the pursuit of a new enemy called the Tracker.

Crono: The New Dawn was one of our favorite Xbox titles last year, and judging by the gameplay deep dive we’ve seen of this DLC last July and today’s Story trailer, it’s about to get even better and scarier when Cronos: Lazarus drops on December 3, 2026.

If you haven’t played Cronos: The New Dawn yet, now’s the best time to jump in, as Bloober Team is offering the game at a 50% discount on all digital storefronts for the Halloween season.
