The DS remake of the classic game, Chrono Trigger, has been announced to have an added mini-game. The mini-game involves the battling of monsters, either by yourself or with friends across the DS's wireless connectivity. While in-depth details on the mini-game have yet to be released, there are said to be 50 kinds of monsters, and winning a battle will result in a rare item.
You have to train the monsters in order to increase their strength, and as they gain strength their appearance will change.
In addition, information on the two extra dungeons in Chrono Trigger DS has been revealed:
- Dimensional Distortion
A mysterious dungeon suddenly appears. Travel through time to overcome the challenges, and reach the depths to claim a hidden power. Clearing the different parts of the dungeon will affect the End of Time in some way.
- Dragon's Sanctuary
In the last leg of the story, new gates to prehistoric times and the middle ages suddenly appear. Within the dungeon, one will have to complete various requests to continue. The quests gradually increase in difficulty, and you may have to go to a different era in order to continue. Help the reptites to reach the innermost parts of the dungeon. What could be waiting there...?
New Chrono Trigger Form-ism figures of Crono and Marle have been showcased at a Square Enix pop-up store, with pre-orders expected soon.
Unannounced Chrono Trigger Formism figures were spotted at a 30th Anniversary concert, fueling renewed speculation following Square Enix’s earlier anniversary plans.
Square Enix reveals Chrono Trigger: Melodies That Resonate Across Time, an orchestral album featuring ten classic tracks performed at the 30th anniversary concert in Tokyo.
A remake or even a modern port would do since it is one of the best games all time. Can’t believe it’s been 30 years since I first played it
Yasunori Mitsuda is a talented composer I love the music both from Chrono Trigger, Xenogears. I will always enjoy Nobuo Uematsu as well. I would love to have seen the Chrono Trigger concert live.
Nice. Time to dust off the ol' DS and beat this game again. I'm actually really excited for this.
Sounds so amazing! Cannot wait...*dies*
Hey, wait a minute... This sounds very familiar...
Oh, no, I'm thinking of Sword of Mana when they remade Final Fantasy Adventures.
Or is it Final Fantasy Tactics for PSP?
Maybe it's FFIV on the DS I'm thinking of.
Where could I have ever possibly heard of SquareEnix remaking a game and giving it just enough new content so that people will get it??
Well at least they aren't just throwing out the same game and are giving an effort by adding some fun features to an already sweet game :) I could still play my SNES version or you could still play the emulator you may have but it won't be the same as this DS game which is pretty cool
