Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon Coming to Android, iOS Later This Year

The top-down dungeon crawler genre is beloved for a reason: the thrill of battling through waves of enemies, whether in vibrant colors or gritty settings, is unmatched. Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon aims to refresh the series with a blend of both styles. This pixelated roguelite, a staple on Apple Arcade, is now breaking its exclusivity to launch on iOS, Android, and Steam later this year.

Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon, set 200 years after the events of the second game, introduces roguelite co-op elements for up to four players. The game lets you dive deep into the labyrinthine Chronos Dungeon, where you'll seek the Paradigm Hourglass and potentially a way to mend the fractured world around you. With the ability to switch classes on the fly, the gameplay promises to be dynamic and engaging.

Visually, Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon embraces a 16-bit pixel art style that feels like a nostalgic nod to classics like Zelda. The randomized dungeons keep the experience fresh and challenging, and the game's graphics remain appealing even years after its initial release due to their timeless quality.

Fans have more to look forward to as the upcoming release is expected to be the Golden Edition, previously exclusive to Apple Arcade since 2022. This version includes an additional town, new NPCs, and other enhancements, promising a comprehensive experience when Oceanhorn: Chronos Dungeon finally hits the broader mobile market.
