THQ Nordic has announced a prequel to Remnant: From the Ashes titled Chronos: Before the Ashes.
It’s from Gunfire Games, the same studio behind Remnant: From the Ashes and Darksiders 3.
In Chronos, you play a young hero who tries to save his home from an ancient evil. It’s set in a labyrinth, with “unforgiving and brutal” combat. There’s an interesting ageing mechanic: when you die, you have to wait a year to return to the labyrinth, which means you can try again but one year older. According to the official blurb: “When you start your journey, it’s still easy to get stronger and quicker, but the older you get, the more important your wisdom about the arcane powers will become.”
