Rumor: Possible New Release of Chrono Trigger?

Wow, let’s dive into this thing. So, Yuji Horii — yeah, the dude from the whole “Dream Team” behind Chrono Trigger — might have sorta accidentally hinted at a remake for the game’s 30th anniversary. I mean, who spills the beans like that? Legend.

Okay, picture this: a comic convention in Napoli. People are buzzing around, soaking in all things nerdy. And there’s Horii, up on stage, probably not expecting to set off a mini firestorm. He casually drops a mention of the Chrono Trigger remake. Some folks say he was asked to confirm and then just — wham! — hand over his mouth, and the translator goes all “you heard nothing”. Can you imagine the crowd? Total chaos, like, the sound of stamping feet and hoots echoing around the room. Pure magic.

Now, this isn’t even the first time Horii’s been a bit… well, loose with info. Flash back to July 2015. This guy couldn’t keep quiet about the 3DS versions of Dragon Quest VII and VIII coming our way. Oh, and dropping the news about Dragon Quest XI being on the “NX”? What a time to be alive. The Switch hadn’t even emerged then. Makes you wonder if he’s doing it on purpose, or if he’s just that excitable.

Anyway, fast forward a bit… March 11 rolls around — Chrono Trigger’s birthday! Everyone’s hoping for more than just a pat on the back, right? Square Enix teases us with more celebration news, but nothing solid. Classic.

So, here we are, itching with anticipation, wondering: was it planned, or did he just go rogue? Either way, gotta love the drama.
