At least physically, the package heads to Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch on December 12, 2025.

Mortal Kombat Trilogy came out in 1996. While largely the same as Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, it featured characters and stages restored from Mortal Kombat and Mortal Kombat 2.

Cronos: The New Dawn review for Nintendo Switch 2
Posted on 2 months ago by Edan in Reviews, Switch 2 | 0 comments
System: Switch 2
Release date: September 5, 2025
Developer: Bloober Team
Publisher: Bloober Team
It’s always nice to play games that feel like a product of the people that made them, and to see complex cultural values and historical experiences reflected within the games we play. It’s even nicer to see these topics handled in a way that feels earnest, heartfelt, and naturally rooted in the onscreen fiction. The risk-averse confines of the AA and AAA ecosystem make it difficult for modern developers to sing from the heart in this regard, which is what makes Cronos: The New Dawn such an enticing prospect. Fresh off of their mainstream mega-success with a solid remake of Konami’s Silent Hill 2, Polish developer Bloober Team has bucked the idea of banking on the safety of sequels and remakes. Instead, they’ve opted to hard-launch an entirely new action-horror franchise. Not just any new franchise, mind – but one that’s so deeply rooted in modern Polish history that I came out the other end of my time with it wearing a zupan.
