Chrono Trigger Remake Already in Development, Insider Claims
According to a well-known insider, a Chrono Trigger remake is already in development.
For the past year, rumors have been circulating that a Chrono Trigger remake might be in development. Fans were repeatedly disappointed when it was revealed to be mistranslations or simply development considerations by one of the writers of this legendary game and the creator of the Dragon Quest series, Yuji Horii. However, according to a well-known insider, the remake of this classic 16-bit JRPG is actually in development.
In a ResetEra forum thread related to a recent survey shared by Square Enix's Team Asano, who popularized the HD-2D visual style through the Octopath Traveler series, insider John Hacker left a very interesting comment.
"Chrono work is already underway. Let's ask for something else like restarting Triangle Strategy 2 or a proper sequel to Final Fantasy Tactics," said the insider, immediately igniting hope for fans of the remake.
Later, when member Sketchdoc said, "You really should have kept quiet about that," John Hacker replied, "Not the first time either," confirming the information provided. Unfortunately, this insider did not specify whether this Chrono Trigger remake would be an HD-2D game, a remastered version like Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions, or a puppet-style remake like the recent Dragon Quest VII Remake.
Needless to say, random posts by ordinary users on public forums are often difficult to trust. However, John Hacker has been providing accurate information about upcoming video games and showcases for nearly 10 years. For example, he revealed details about Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Assassin's Creed Shadows, including State of Play and Nintendo Direct presentation times. Therefore, while this information should still be taken with caution, there is a high probability that the user provided accurate information.
Hopefully, this remake will not follow in the footsteps of the rumored Final Fantasy IX remake and will eventually be released so that both new and existing players can embark on a time-traveling adventure that has left its mark on almost every Japanese RPG released since then.
