"Chrono Trigger Marks 30 Years with Multiple Releases Planned"

Chrono Trigger, one of the most revered JRPGs in gaming history, has officially reached its 30th anniversary. Square Enix is commemorating this milestone with a series of upcoming projects set to roll out over the next year. While exact details remain under wraps, the phrasing hints that these initiatives may go beyond traditional game releases.

The news has ignited excitement and speculation among longtime fans who have eagerly awaited a modern remaster or console re-release for years. Despite its iconic status, Chrono Trigger has yet to receive a full remake or even a native PlayStation release since its original PS1 port in 1999. Although it has seen mobile and PC iterations, a definitive updated version remains absent. However, Square Enix’s recent track record with classic titles keeps hope alive.

Chrono Trigger 30th Anniversary Livestream

As part of the celebration, Square Enix will host a special concert livestream on YouTube to honor the game’s legendary musical score. The event is scheduled to air on March 14th at 7:00 p.m. PT and continue into the early hours of March 15th. Fans worldwide can tune in to experience the timeless melodies that helped define the RPG genre.

A Timeless Masterpiece

For those unfamiliar, Chrono Trigger is a groundbreaking time-traveling RPG developed by an all-star team including Hironobu Sakaguchi (creator of Final Fantasy), Yuji Horii (mastermind behind Dragon Quest), and Akira Toriyama (legendary artist of Dragon Ball). Originally launched in 1995 for the Super Famicom and SNES, the game follows Crono and his companions as they journey across multiple eras—from the prehistoric age of dinosaurs to a bleak, alien-dominated future.

Throughout the adventure, players recruit powerful allies, reshape history, and face off against one of the most unforgettable final bosses in video game history. Its innovative battle system, branching storylines, and memorable soundtrack have cemented its legacy as a timeless classic.

While no official remake or new version has been announced yet, Square Enix’s latest statement suggests that more surprises could be on the horizon. Be sure to follow Chrono Trigger’s official X account for updates as they become available.
