More On: CHRONO CROSS: THE RADICAL DREAMERS EDITION

It's been a long time coming and, to be honest, I'm pretty sure the neighbors heard my excitement when Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition was first announced. Now we don't have to wait any longer as Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition has launched on PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch. Not only are you able to relive (or experience for the first time) the sequel to Chrono Trigger that's kind of only loosely tied to it, but you can also check out Radical Dreamers, a text-based adventure game released in 1996 for the Satellaview that establishes the foundation for Chrono Cross.
