Unless Horii comes out and says that a revival categorically isn&#8217;t happening, then this is always going to be the case.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, the legendary developer did something similar back in May, when his words were somewhat misinterpreted. He did, however, say that he wanted to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pushsquare.com\/news\/2025\/05\/chrono-trigger-remake-hopes-return-as-legendary-dev-wants-to-do-something-with-the-classic-rpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;do something&#8221; with Chrono Trigger<\/a>, and that he was &#8220;starting to contemplate&#8221; what that something could be.<\/p>\n<p>In this latest case, we think it&#8217;s pretty clear that Horii&#8217;s having a laugh. He might even be referencing the kerfuffle that his previous comments caused \u2014 and he simply doesn&#8217;t want to get into trouble again.<\/p>\n<p>Still, these rumours will persist until we get something concrete from Square Enix. Just look at the seemingly never-ending <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pushsquare.com\/games\/ps4\/final_fantasy_ix\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Final Fantasy 9<\/a> remake saga.<\/p>\n<p>Do you think we&#8217;ll ever see Chrono Trigger return?
