Chrono Trigger Creator ‘Considering’ a Remake

Sure, here it is:

—

So, you know that game Chrono Trigger? Yeah, one of the creators, Yuji Horii—big deal back in ’95 with the SNES RPGs—is toying with the idea of a remake. No kidding! It all went down at some convention in Naples. He just casually mentions he’s thinking about it, and bam, fans are freaking out.

Let’s back up—a bit all over the place here. So, Chrono Trigger, right, it came out in ’95. The so-called “Dream Team” (how dramatic), with folks like Horii, Hironobu Sakaguchi—yeah, that Final Fantasy guy—and Akira Toriyama of Dragon Ball fame. They cooked up this bonkers time-travel romp. Picture this: running around history with Crono, Marle, and Lucca trying to stop the world from ending. Classic stuff.

And oh, the music! Yasunori Mitsuda basically created magic with the soundtrack. But that’s a whole other thing. Anyway, I should get back on track—where was I? Right, the convention drama.

Apparently, some social media buzz got tangled up in translation. Spanish media caught on, and r/GamingLeaksAndRumors ended up spreading Horii’s comment like wildfire. But, you know, things get lost in translation. So, Horii’s words weren’t exactly as they seemed at first.

Oh, and let’s not forget, with Chrono’s 30th anniversary in 2025, fans are simple clawing for a remake (I get it, nostalgia is real). But Square Enix is coy about it—like, come on! Of course, Horii, being busy with Dragon Quest projects—#12 is a mystery, and don’t even get me started on the HD-2D remakes—he’s got his hands full.

So, here we are. Will Square Enix ride this nostalgia wave and give us a shiny new Chrono Trigger or what? Only time will tell… or not. Who knows what’s cooking behind the scenes? A remake, a remaster, or just dreams? Time’ll tell. Maybe.
