The iconic JRPG, Chrono Trigger, is turning 30, and Square Enix is pulling out all the stops to celebrate this monumental milestone. Dive into what's planned for this legendary game's anniversary!

Chrono Trigger 30th Anniversary Celebration

Various Projects To Come

Chrono Trigger, the timeless classic JRPG, marks its 30th anniversary since its initial release on the Super Famicom in 1995. Square Enix Japan announced this special occasion on its official X (formerly Twitter) account, labeling it a "masterpiece that transcends generations." This accolade is well-deserved, as Chrono Trigger was the brainchild of three industry legends: Yuji Horii of Dragon Quest fame, Akira Toriyama, the creative genius behind Dragon Ball, and Hironobu Sakaguchi, the mastermind of the Final Fantasy series.

In a heartfelt message, Square Enix expressed, "To mark the 30th anniversary and to express our gratitude to everyone who has played Chrono Trigger so far, we are planning a variety of projects over the next year that will go beyond the world of the game." (Translation courtesy of Gematsu) While specifics on these projects remain under wraps, fans are encouraged to keep an eye on the official Square Enix and ChronoTriggerPR X (Twitter) accounts for the latest updates.
