Chrono Trigger Marks 30 Years with Multiple Releases Planned

by Eric Mar 26,2025

Square Enix has proudly announced that the iconic JRPG, *Chrono Trigger*, has celebrated its 30-year milestone. This significant anniversary is set to be commemorated with a series of exciting projects that will unfold over the next year. Although the details of these projects remain under wraps, the phrasing from Square Enix hints at possibilities that might extend well beyond the game itself, sparking excitement and speculation among fans.

The announcement has fueled anticipation, especially among those who have been longing for a comprehensive remaster or a modern console release. Despite being hailed as one of the greatest JRPGs ever created, *Chrono Trigger* has yet to receive a full remake or a re-release on newer PlayStation consoles, with the last official port being on the PS1 back in 1999. Over the years, the game has found its way to PC and mobile platforms, but a definitive modern version continues to be a dream for many fans. Given Square Enix's history of revisiting its classic titles, there's always a glimmer of hope for a more substantial release.

In the meantime, fans can look forward to a special livestream concert celebrating the game's legendary soundtrack. This concert will be available to watch on YouTube on March 14th, starting at 7:00 p.m. PT and continuing into the early hours of the next morning.

Chrono Trigger 30th Anniversary Concert

For those new to the game, *Chrono Trigger* is a masterpiece of time-traveling RPG adventure, developed by a stellar team including Hironobu Sakaguchi, the creator of Final Fantasy, Yuji Horii, the mastermind behind Dragon Quest, and Akira Toriyama, the legendary artist of Dragon Ball. Originally launched in 1995 for the Super Famicom and SNES, the game follows protagonist Crono and his companions as they traverse various time periods, from a prehistoric era filled with dinosaurs to a dystopian future threatened by an alien force. Players will recruit allies, manipulate history, and confront one of gaming's most memorable final bosses.

As *Chrono Trigger* marks its 30th anniversary, while there's no confirmed news of a remake or console port yet, Square Enix's statement leaves room for optimism. Stay tuned to *Chrono Trigger*'s official X page for the latest updates on what's in store for this beloved classic.
