The world of science fiction is full of captivating female characters that have captured the hearts of fans worldwide. From iconic figures in Star Wars and Aliens to the mysterious agents of X-Files, these protagonists have left a lasting impact on the genre. Bloober Team, in their new production Cronos: The New Dawn, pays tribute to these beloved characters by featuring a female protagonist.
Director Jacek Zięba emphasizes that the decision to have a female lead was based on the style and existing references within the science fiction genre, rather than as a political statement or feminist agenda. The character of Traveler was chosen for her compelling nature and how she fits into the sci-fi setting of the game.
While Zięba acknowledges the potential for the choice to be interpreted as a political statement, he is confident that the story will support the decision and showcase the protagonist’s development throughout the game.
