16th of October, 2025, Spain. Today, indie developer One More Time has unveiled Kaiju Cleaner Simulator, a hilarious cooperative simulator for 1-4 players that puts you in the shoes of a professional cleanup team tasked with restoring cities after the fiercest battles with giant monsters. The game offers a brutal first-person experience full of dissection, heavy machinery operation, barrels of laughs, and toxin removal. Each mission demands precision and teamwork as you dissect colossal monster bodies, carefully extracting valuable organs and materials crucial for upgrades. The first-person gameplay lets you use scalpels, saws, and other specialized tools designed to handle biological waste and unusual monster anatomy.

The game truly shines in cooperative play, encouraging up to four players to coordinate different roles from organ harvesting and machinery operation to environmental cleansing and debris management. Solo players can also enjoy the full experience, taking on every challenge at their own pace. Beyond the serious cleanup work, Kaiju Cleaner Simulator embraces humor and absurdity. Unexpected situations and quirky monster designs bring lighthearted moments to the gritty tasks of cleaning up after kaiju rampages, creating a perfect mix of dark comedy and simulation fun.

“After watching Kaiju No. 8, we thought maybe being a kaiju cleaner is even tougher than being their exterminator. It’s a job for real tough guys. Our game is for those who aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty and turn chaos into fun,” says One More Time.

Kaiju Cleaner’s Steam page is now live, and players can also request access to join the upcoming playtest, scheduled for early 2026.

About One More Time:
One More Time is an independent studio with six years of experience, originally known for hyper-casual mobile hits. Two years ago, they transitioned to PC games, achieving success with their debut Tavern Manager Simulator. This new project is the next step, deepening their expertise in the simulator genre.

Listen up, horror fans: if you haven’t yet dared to play Cronos: The New Dawn — the survival horror cocktail of sci-fi mystery and retro-futuristic vibes — consider this your official invitation. Our dev team handpicked a few delightfully twisted reasons why skipping this one would be… a rookie mistake.

1.     Pure Body Horror!

It’s something deeply human — the fear of our own flesh turning against us. A feast for true connoisseurs of the grotesque, Cronos: The New Dawn dives deep into the anatomy of fear — the poetry of decay. For those who crave the unsettling, it delivers raw, visceral transformation: flesh twisting, bones contorting, humanity dissolving into nightmare.

Cronos’ signature monsters — the Orphans — merge, devour corpses, and evolve in real time. The more they consume, the bigger and more monstrous they become. Merging changes everything — it’s fast, brutal and merciless.

Your only rule: don’t let them merge.

2.   Intense Gameplay – Always on the Edge

Tension hits like a rollercoaster — dread, panic, relief — making every encounter feel electrifying. As resources dwindle, you’ll be on the edge of your seat while monstrous creations start to merge. Strategy is everything. No two fights are alike. Monsters adapt, merge, and evolve, keeping you sharp and forcing split-second decisions. This is survival horror at full intensity.

3.     Fear Factor – Face It Your Way… and Have a Blast!

Cronos: The New Dawn is a tribute to classic survival horror games, set against the haunting backdrop of Nowa Huta, where every corner oozes with tension and apocalyptic mystery. You fear not only what lurks around each corner, but the fragility of your survival strategy itself — one wrong move and chaos takes over. There’s a strange beauty in fear: feeling those intense emotions in a controlled environment, where danger excites without causing real harm, is both electrifying and liberating. It’s messy, terrifying, and saturated with adrenaline and carnage — capturing the very essence of the ghostly season, making it perfect for Halloween nights.

4.     Hear the Symphony of Horror

Prepare to feel fear in every vibration. Cronos: The New Dawn delivers a spine-chilling soundtrack, masterfully crafted by the incredible Arkadiusz Reikowski and amplified by the haunting Zazula Choir. Eerie, Blade Runner–style synths collide with ghostly Polish Ukrainian vocals, creating a soundscape that burrows deep under your skin. Every creak, whisper, and distortion makes you question reality. This isn’t just music — it’s an invitation to tremble.

5.     Test your courage, dare to survive

Cronos: The New Dawn is more than a game — it’s an experience. Survive it, and October will never feel the same again. The world is brutally challenging, and combat will push you to your limits — but every hard-fought victory is intensely satisfying. And if you die? Don’t be afraid to try again.

A bonus reason? You know we had to throw it in here. THE CATS. There is nothing sassier than a judgmental cat. These fluffy four-legged creatures are found throughout the collapsing city and can be pet (should they grant you the honor) for a brief reprieve from the harsh reality surrounding you.

This spooky season would not be complete without Cronos: The New Dawn. Consider this your invitation to overcome your fears and untangle a twisted time-travel story as you step into the Traveler’s boots and experience true survival horror at its finest.
