I don’t want to spoil anything that happens in the game, especially if you have never had a chance to play CHRONO CROSS in the past, so instead I will talk about all the changes and improvements that have been implemented for this new release.
The games share a few elements with CHRONO TRIGGER - if you have previously played it or if you have played CHRONO CROSS you will know some of the characters already. You don’t have to play THE RADICAL DREAMERS before you try out CHRONO CROSS, though you will learn more about the characters and their relationships with each other I found it to be very interesting and a lot darker than I had anticipated.
So this brings both The Radical Dreamers and Chrono Cross together for the first time outside of Japan. Chrono Cross was not a direct sequel to Chrono Trigger but takes place in the same world and was released on the PlayStation in 1999. 26 years later the game is now included with the release of CHRONO CROSS: THE RADICAL DREAMERS EDITION.
The game never saw a wide commercial release and was never released outside of Japan, but the ROM was put online allowing for an English fan translation to be made for players to enjoy. THE RADICAL DREAMERS was a text-based visual novel adventure game, not a traditional role-playing game like the other entry in the Chrono Trigger series, due to the limitations of the download service. This was a shorter game that was only released for the Satellaview, an addition to the Super Famicom which allowed players to download games, although it was only available to residents in Japan. After its success, Square followed up with a side story called Radical Dreamers in 1996. In the past, Square (or Square Enix) released a ton of great JRPGs for the Super Nintendo, with one of them being CHRONO TRIGGER this title ended up being one of my favourite games on the system.
