Chronicon imagines a world after its great evils have been defeated and its quests completed. A magical device opens portals into the memories and souls of legendary heroes, and the player is chosen to experience their stories. That premise gives the action RPG a distinctive frame: its adventures are remembered tales rather than a conventional ongoing threat.
Those journeys unfold across five acts, each with its own storyline, and four classes offer different foundations for character builds: Templar, Berserker, Warden, and Warlock. Procedurally generated areas and dungeons vary between playthroughs, while a large pool of equipment, randomized item qualities, skills, abilities, and perks supports extensive character development. Crafting adds further ways to improve gear, and the listed endgame includes randomized dungeons, bosses, and specialized crafting mechanics.
Chronicon can be played solo or in local co-op for up to four players on one machine, and Remote Play Together is supported.
