   So glad they remade it for the switch. Used to play Chrono Cross multiple times back in my child hood to just try and see the multiple endings. Glad I can share it with my child now.

   Yay!!! Again! My favorite game from forever ago! I love this game!!! Graphics are about the same, but I’m not that good to tell much difference unless it’s like a huge. I’d say it’s decently better graphics. But it is an old game. The colors at times seem a bit brighter maybe. But if you love the PlayStation game, and you play switch you got to get this one! The nostalgia! If you love rpg turn based games, this is one you want to have. Also as the old one you could fast forward (move time faster) I believe after you beat it the first time, this one lets you do it from the start! Which is pretty sweet, you can get through battles faster.

4. Chrono Cross The Radical Dreamers Edition (Nintendo Switch) Verified Buyer – 7 February 2025

   Probably nobody cares, but listen up! The Chrono Trigger present-day & middle ages characters (Crono, Lucca, Marle, Glenn [or “Frog”] and Magus) along with some previous NPCs (Fritz, Gaspar, Norstein Bekkler) are all playable in this but are in disguise. (Perhaps others, too) They are very integral to understanding and appreciating the convoluted nonsense of a plot. Since the designers didn’t do a well enough job to convey this, most players just throw up their hands and say it’s ridiculous and unfaithful to the spirit of the original. I would mention Schala, too, but we all know by now that Kid/Harle are partial clones. That, and Belthasar, are explicitly revealed. If you’re interested to know how I discovered all this, then send a DM I made a similar post in Chronoverse on Facebook. I don’t want to spoil it too much, because figuring it out was half the fun. Just know that out of the 45 playable characters, there are some you may have recruited and used and were none the wiser about their importance as, shall we say, puppet-masters. The keys are in the Status screens, checking Origins, spending as much time as possible at Viper Manor, and paying very close attention to what the Chrono Trigger-game designers were trying to convey about their characters in measly 16-bit pixelated graphics of the first game, and the reasons behind the cliffhanger cinematic cutscenes which were released the very same year as Cross. It’s not ideal, but try to see our heroes as fully-fleshed out people who will eventually transition to adults. Pip and Marcy are playable characters that are used as clues. Also, do not bring Norris into the Dead Sea. Chrono Compendium failed because they didn’t have their eye on the ball. Had they focused on character, they would never have spiraled down into a neverending pit of inconsequential minutiae. Of course the developers weren’t analyzing the categorization of the Keystone XL timeline vs. the Reptite timeline and all that other nonsense that’s in the essays on there, and discrepancies or holes will probably be identified. What’s important in Cross is that the planet is a living Entity that doesn’t like meddling and change and course-corrects, which gives rise to the Dragonians and so forth. The game is purposely abstract, and the gamer, obtuse, so this pushback is communicated almost subliminally. The hazards of the mission facilitates the need for covert planning and disguises when meddling with things, and so Schala is freed from the Time Devourer via indirect means by the orchestration of Project Kid. And it isn’t only Belthasar and Nu at work here, and the Neo-Epoch is not an insignificant easter egg, obviously it’s been used. Belthasar is a static character who only cultivates knowledge. Crono, Marle, Lucca, Glenn/Frog, Magus, Gaspar, Bekkler and others (ten years on from Trigger) are in disguise and are guiding the process… puppeteering, in a way, and Lucca’s letter to Kid tells you what you need to know. If you don’t get caught up in the “lives” of the ridiculous El Nido natives (and I believe characters like Korcha suck for a reason!) or put them in your party, then you can play Cross properly as a true Trigger sequel. It’s well worth it to do so. That is all. “All life begins with Nu and ends with Nu.”

   This is a fun remaster to Chrono Cross and is great for anyone looking for a new game to play or anyone looking to revisit an old favorite without having to find a working copy and PS1/PS2.
   

6. Chris Verified Buyer – 10 March 2025

   Gorgeously remastered… Backgrounds aren’t blurry like the final fantasy 7, 8, & 9 “remastered” versions for switch. They kept the dialogue of the original for the most part, which is a huge plus for me. Just curious why they haven’t made the prequel for a switch yet! They have it on almost every other platform,even my phone! And it originally came out on Nintendo lol. But this is my all-time favorite game since released for PlayStation one, and I approve of this remastery 100%.

   This game defined my childhood (and Zelda, lol) it was great to play again. The gameplay graphics have been updated but the cutscenes have not, so the first you see is really grainy as it PS1 graphics. A bit disappointing. It does have a strong “save the forest” vibe and alot of scriptural phrases that can be overwhelming but if you don’t care it’s not a problem. I do recommend at least one playthrough as the game is a bit different then what most people are used to and is awesome for Cosplay. I would love this game to get a full remake one day and updated a bit on the script.

   A fantastic Jrpg game from PS1 era. If you like Jrpg genre buy it now!

   I really love the new look. It’s very clean looking but keeps the game the same. I recommend checking it out if you are interested in old ps1 age RPG games.
