"Chrono Trigger Marks 30 Years with Multiple Releases Planned"

Author : Hannah May 26,2025

Square Enix has proudly announced that the iconic JRPG, *Chrono Trigger*, has reached its remarkable 30-year milestone. To celebrate this significant anniversary, the company has teased fans with the promise of various upcoming projects set to launch over the next year. While details remain under wraps, the language used hints that these initiatives may extend well beyond the realm of the game itself.

This announcement has ignited a flurry of excitement and speculation among the game's dedicated fanbase. For years, enthusiasts have yearned for a comprehensive remaster or a modern console release of this beloved title. Despite its revered status as one of the most cherished JRPGs ever created, *Chrono Trigger* has yet to receive a full-fledged remake or even a re-release on PlayStation beyond the PS1 port from 1999.

Over the years, the game has found its way to PC and mobile platforms, yet a definitive modern version continues to elude fans. Given Square Enix's history of revisiting its classic titles, hope persists for a significant update. However, the only confirmed event for the anniversary so far is a special livestream featuring the game's legendary soundtrack. This concert is scheduled to air on YouTube on March 14th at 7:00 p.m. PT and will continue into the early hours of the following morning.

Chrono Trigger 30th Anniversary Concert

For those new to the series, *Chrono Trigger* is an epic time-traveling RPG developed by a powerhouse team of creators, including Hironobu Sakaguchi of *Final Fantasy* fame, Yuji Horii, the mastermind behind *Dragon Quest*, and the renowned artist Akira Toriyama, known for *Dragon Ball*. Originally launched in 1995 for the Super Famicom and SNES, the game follows protagonist Crono and his companions on a journey through various time periods—from a prehistoric dinosaur-filled world to a dystopian future dominated by an alien force. Players will recruit allies, manipulate history, and face off against one of gaming's most memorable final bosses.

The 30th anniversary marks a monumental moment for *Chrono Trigger*, and while there is no confirmation yet of a remake or console port, Square Enix's statement leaves the door open for future possibilities.
