Chrono Trigger Revival Hopes Have Been Reignited Yet Again

That pesky Yuji Horii's at it again, getting Chrono Trigger fans all riled up over a potential re-release.

This time, the Dragon Quest creator — who was a supervisor on the original Chrono Trigger — has raised eyebrows with comments that he made during a recent Japanese broadcast (as reported by IGN).

When asked about all of the remaster and remake rumours that have surrounded the RPG's 30th anniversary for months now, Horii replied: "I can't say", "you shouldn't ask that", and "I'll get told off!".

Of course, this has been enough to reignite all kinds of hopes and dreams. Unless Horii comes out and says that a revival categorically isn't happening, then this is always going to be the case.

Indeed, the legendary developer did something similar back in May, when his words were somewhat misinterpreted. He did, however, say that he wanted to "do something" with Chrono Trigger, and that he was "starting to contemplate" what that something could be.

In this latest case, we think it's pretty clear that Horii's having a laugh. He might even be referencing the kerfuffle that his previous comments caused — and he simply doesn't want to get into trouble again.

Still, these rumours will persist until we get something concrete from Square Enix. Just look at the seemingly never-ending Final Fantasy 9 remake saga.

Do you think we'll ever see Chrono Trigger return? Travel through time in the comments section below.
