The region of neutron-rich Cr isotopes has garnered much attention in recent years due to a rapid onset collectivity near neutron number $N=40$. We report here on the first $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray spectroscopy beyond $({4}_{1}^{+})$ state $^{62,64}\mathrm{Cr}$, using nucleon removal reactions from several projectiles within rare-isotope beam cocktail. A candidate for ${6}^{+}$ $^{64}\mathrm{Cr}$ is presented as well one for, possibly, second excited ${0}^{+}$ $^{62}\mathrm{Cr}$. results are discussed comparison LNPS shell-model predictions that allow excitations across $N=40$ harmonic oscillator gap into ${g}_{9/2}$ and ${d}_{5/2}$ orbitals. calculated level schemes $^{62,64}\mathrm{Cr}$ reveal intriguing collective structures. From predicted particle-hole character low-lying states these isotopes, $^{62}\mathrm{Cr}$ emerges transitional system path center island inversion.
