Possible Chrono Trigger Release on the Horizon – Rumors Circulate

Yuji Horii, gotta love him, really can’t keep a lid on things. Seriously, it’s like he’s allergic to secrets or something. And maybe that’s exactly why fans adore him?

So, picture this: a comic con in Napoli, Italy, right? Packed with people, the excitement in the air like static, and there’s Horii, a big name in the gaming world thanks to Dragon Quest. Now, during a panel, he just casually drops a bomb about a Chrono Trigger remake. Maybe he just got caught up in the moment? The host, looking kind of stunned, asks him to confirm. And what does he do? Covers his mouth like a kid who just let slip a secret. The translator jumps in with, “You heard nothing.” Classic move, right? And of course, the crowd goes wild.

This isn’t Horii’s first rodeo with loose lips, though. Back in July 2015, he basically spilled the beans on localizing the Dragon Quest VII and VIII versions for 3DS. And get this, he’d already let slip about Dragon Quest XI for the “NX”—yep, the Switch’s secret name way back when—before official announcements were even a thing.

March 11 marked the 30th anniversary of Chrono Trigger’s release in Japan. Square Enix, in their mysterious fashion, promised there’d be more anniversary celebrations. But specifics? Not a peep. Keeps us all on our toes, doesn’t it?
