Ready to dive into the thrilling world of Cronos: The New Dawn? Armed with your trusty starting handgun, you may feel overwhelmed by the relentless Orphans lurking around every corner. But don’t worry—there are plenty of powerful weapons available that can turn the tide in your favor as you explore the treacherous past.
In this guide, you’ll discover the locations of all the weapons in Cronos: The New Dawn, ensuring you’re well-equipped to fend off those Orphans and inch closer to platinum achievements.
1. How to Obtain All Weapons in Cronos: The New Dawn
Starting with the Sword MK-1615, the initial Relic, you’ll be on a hunt for six diverse weapons hidden throughout the game. Exploring every nook and cranny is essential, as resources like ammo are scarce. For ammunition, craft them in your inventory menu using Metal Scrap and Chemicals. If you find yourself desperate, you can create one shell at a time in Cronos‘s safe room, but reserve this option for dire situations, like boss fights. Don’t forget to melee breakable boxes to scavenge supplies, as melee combat isn’t effective against the Orphans.
