FDG Entertainment and Cornfox & Bros. have exciting news for fans of the Oceanhorn series: a new game titled Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon is on the horizon. Set to launch in Q2 2025, this game will be available on Android, iOS, and PC via Steam, and it takes place 200 years after the events of Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm. This installment promises a fresh take on the beloved series, shifting the focus from sailing the seas to exploring the depths of a mysterious underground labyrinth.
What’s the Story in New Game Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon?
In Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon, the setting shifts dramatically from the open seas to the perilous depths of an underground dungeon. The game introduces a retro-style dungeon crawler experience set in the world of Gaia, which is now in disarray. The once-mighty Kingdom of Arcadia has fragmented into scattered islands, and the legendary White City is but a distant memory.
Amidst this chaos, four brave adventurers embark on a quest to explore the Chronos Dungeon, a mysterious underground complex rumored to house the Paradigm Hourglass. This powerful artifact is said to possess the ability to alter history itself. If these heroes can navigate the dangers within the dungeon, they might just have the chance to restore Gaia to its former glory.

What About the Features?
Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon embraces the classic dungeon crawler format with a nostalgic 16-bit arcade feel. Designed for couch co-op, the game supports up to four players teaming up for cooperative gameplay. If you're playing solo, you have the flexibility to control all four heroes or switch between them as needed, ensuring a dynamic and engaging experience.
Each playthrough is unique, as the heroes' starting stats are influenced by their zodiac signs, adding a layer of variability to the game. The four playable characters include the Knight, Huntress, Grandmaster, and Mage, each bringing their own skills to the table.
The game's aesthetic is a throwback to the past, featuring pixel art visuals and a chiptune-inspired soundtrack that enhances the old-school arcade atmosphere. For those eager to learn more, the Steam page for Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon is now live, offering additional details on this exciting new title from FDG Entertainment.
