Today, Polish developer Bloober Team has unveiled the first gameplay footage and a developer diary for Cronos: Lazarus, and the new DLC looks like a deliberate shift in tone and pace from the base game, Cronos: The New Dawn. Rather than preserving its slower survival-horror rhythm, the expansion pushes the action toward a faster, more aggressive style built around pursuit, tactical positioning, and a more combat-forward version of the Warden's journey. The story is focused on one of the most recognizable figures from the original game: the Warden, seen here in his earlier life as the Pathfinder, an agent of the […]

Thankfully, we didn't have to wait too much longer for the official confirmation that yes, Cronos: Lazarus is a new DLC, and it'll arrive at some point in Fall 2026. Lazarus is another story chapter for fans of Cronos: The New Dawn […]

Bloober Team's next game may be days away from its reveal during the hullabaloo of Summer Game Fest 2026, at one of the remaining upcoming showcases. We know that, after its most recent release, Cronos: The New Dawn, the studio has a Silent Hill 1 Remake and a new project from the team who made Cronos in the works. Now, after images leaked online, it looks like the latter of the two projects, which seems to be titled Cronos: Lazarus, will be revealed imminently during the SGF festivities.

After laying dormant for a decade, the Silent Hill franchise is officially back and bigger than ever. With the most recent release ‘Silent Hill f’ continuing to find new audiences, Bloober Team’s excellent Silent Hill 2 Remake has reached a massive milestone – officially surpassing 5 million total players.

Taking to Twitter to make the announcement, the official Silent Hill page revealed that over 5 million people have played the latest remake from Bloober Team, writing: “The fog's reach grows ever greater, and a timeless story continues to find new minds to echo through. SILENT HILL 2 celebrates 5 million units worldwide!”

As always, 5 million players does not equate to 5 million copies sold, with Konami stating that this latest figure includes “units shipped, store downloads and subscription services.”

This is worthy of note as Silent Hill 2 Remake was added to PlayStation Plus Extra back in October of last year (on the 21st to be specific) just days after confirming that the title had SOLD 2.5 million copies.

Regardless of whether it was through direct purchases or PlayStation Plus however, Silent Hill is in a strong place right now. It will be interesting to see whether the remake eventually outsells the entire rest of the franchise’s previous output.

Bloober Team has been busy in recent years, with the horror-focused studio having released a remake of the iconic Silent Hill 2 alongside new IP Cronos: The New Dawn within the past year and a bit. With the team having already confirmed that multiple new projects are in the works, Bloober have now offered updates on the likes of Silent Hill 1 Remake, Layers of Fear 3 and more.

In an interview conducted by the polish publication ‘inwestycje’, Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno offered a number of updates on the studio’s current ongoing projects. Currently, we know of 3 different titles which the team are working on: the aforementioned Silent Hill 1 Remake and Layers of Fear 3, alongside a more mysterious Project M set to be a Switch exclusive.

According to Babieno however, there are actually 4 different titles currently being worked on to different degrees, stating: “The creative part of the team is currently conducting pre-production work on a new original project. At the same time, most of the production team [‘Cronos'] is currently supporting the polishing process of selected projects carried out as part of our second party segment.”

Offering a slight update on Project M, the CEO claimed that “some organizational changes” have occurred, and so it appears as though we might have to wait a while to learn more from it.

Curiously, their recently-announced Layers of Fear 3 is not being developed internally, with the project said to be “implemented in a co-development model with a significant influence of the original creators of the brand from Bloober Team” (as translated).

Babieno did not disclose which studio is working on the project, but based on the 2023 release of the Layers of Fear remake/reimagining, it is likely to be Anshar Studios.

Bloober Team have been going from strength-to-strength, with the horror-focused studio’s output improving with each successive release. As such, it will be interesting to see how each of these 4 projects wind up being received upon their eventual arrivals. Here's hoping that Bloober aren’t stretching themselves out too thin.
