‘Chrono Trigger’ Surpasses 5 Million Sales as It Celebrates 30th Anniversary

The legendary role-playing game Chrono Trigger has reached a major milestone. As part of its 30th-anniversary celebration, Square Enix has revealed that the game has now sold over 5 million copies worldwide across all platforms.

Chrono Trigger was originally released on March 11, 1995, for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES). Over the years, it has been ported and remastered for multiple platforms, including the PlayStation, Nintendo DS, PC, and mobile devices. Despite being nearly three decades old, the game remains a favorite among RPG fans and is widely considered a masterpiece.

Square Enix shared this sales update on its official website, mentioning how the various ports and remasters have improved the game while keeping its original charm intact. Features such as updated graphics, enhanced music, and quality-of-life improvements have helped introduce Chrono Trigger to new generations of players.

To mark this important anniversary, Square Enix has also announced plans for several special projects that will go beyond the world of the game. While details are still under wraps, fans can expect exciting announcements over the next year.

Interestingly, Chrono Trigger is not currently available on the Nintendo Switch, despite its popularity and demand. Given the success of classic game re-releases on modern platforms, many fans are hopeful that Square Enix will bring Chrono Trigger to the Switch or other current systems in the future.

For now, players can still enjoy the game on various other platforms, and with the promise of new projects, the legacy of Chrono Trigger is set to continue for years to come.
