Hello Europe, it’s 1995 calling.
The popular rpg Chrono Trigger is finally coming to the European market after a long, 13-year absence. Square Enix announced yesterday that their revival of the Super Nintendo classic will be hitting the Nintendo DS in early 2009 in PAL territories. Said John Yamamoto, president and chief executive officer of Square Enix’s European and North American arms:
"It gives me great pleasure to see Chrono Trigger being released in Europe and the PAL territories. With its ground breaking story and gameplay, this epic RPG with multiple endings has already won the hearts of many fans and I hope it delights a whole new audience of players into revisiting the Chrono Trigger world time and again."
As for a North American release, nothing has been officially announced beyond the the vague "Winter 2008" seen in the game’s debut trailer.
