Gematsu corroborate Chrono Cross remaster reports

TLDR; Chrono Cross is long overdue for a remake or remaster.

Roughly around a week ago, an XboxEra podcast appeared to confirm that Chrono Cross is getting a remaster or remake. Fast forward to today and Gematsu also claims to have heard the same information through the grapevine while reporting on the upcoming collaboration. It's worth noting that both Another Eden and Chrono Cross share a writer and composer in Masato Kato and Yasunori, respectively.

What's interesting about this is that the multiple reports claim different things. For example, Gematsu's sources imply that Square Enix isn't going to remake the classic JRPG title. Instead, Chrono Cross is getting a remaster, similar to what Final Fantasy XIII and IX received last decade. However, the information from the aforementioned XboxEra podcast alleges that Square Enix is working on a full remake of Chrono Cross.

Regardless of whichever of these reports end up being true, fans are probably just happy to know that Chrono Cross is finally getting some love.

As previously mentioned, Chrono Cross is only available on the PlayStation Network and the original PlayStation. Even if the game holds up relatively well, all things considered, it would be awesome to get a chance to play it with better graphics. In particular, making Chrono Cross support higher refresh rates and modern display resolution choices can go a long way.

With that said, fans will find out soon if the collaboration/crossover is just what it is or if it's a precursor for a bigger announcement on December 4.
