Don't give me hope, Yuji Horii

At great risk of reigniting the JRPG community's hopes only for them to be dashed immediately after, it is my duty to inform y'all that Yuji Horii has definitely, for sure this time, mentioned a Chrono Trigger remake, and he says he's "contemplating" the project.

Understand that I'm just as excited as anyone about a potential Chrono Trigger remake. It's one of the best JRPGs of all time and often takes the top spot in lists like the one I just linked to, and for damn good reason. So far, nothing's been confirmed, but after a terribly disappointing rollercoaster of news late last week, we now have legitimate reason to be excited, and this time I'm pretty certain nothing's being lost in translation.

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
