FDG Entertainment and Cornfox & Bros. have recently unveiled their latest addition to the Oceanhorn series: Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon. Set 200 years after the events of Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm, this new game promises to bring a fresh twist to the franchise. Scheduled for release on Android, iOS, and PC via Steam in Q2 2025, fans are eagerly anticipating what’s in store.
What’s the Story in New Game Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon?
In Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon, the adventure shifts from sailing the seas to exploring the perilous depths of an underground labyrinth. Players will embark on a dungeon crawler experience with a nostalgic retro feel.
The setting is the world of Gaia, which has fallen into disarray. The once-mighty Kingdom of Arcadia has fragmented into scattered islands, and the legendary White City is now just a distant memory. Amidst this backdrop, four determined adventurers set their sights on the mysterious Chronos Dungeon, rumored to house the powerful Paradigm Hourglass. This artefact holds the potential to alter history itself. If the heroes can navigate the dangers within, they may have the chance to restore Gaia to its former glory.
