Cronos: The New Dawn Steam Deck Performance Review – Surprisingly Playable

Cronos: The New Dawn is the next horror-centric title from Bloober Team, so we take a look to see if it’s one we can take with us on the #SteamDeck.

As I was writing the review, the game got a day 1 patch, which did help performance on the Linux build. Both FSR and XeSS are still not showing up, but it’s more playable out of the box on Very Low settings.
