Yuji Horii, man… he’s like, the king of accidental reveals. Seriously, it’s like he can’t help himself or maybe just doesn’t want to. Bless his heart.
So, there’s this convention in Napoli, Italy — I wasn’t there, obviously, but folks were buzzing about it. Apparently, this dude, Horii — you know, big name behind “Chrono Trigger” — just kinda hinted, or maybe more like spilled, that they might be cooking up a remake for the 30th anniversary. Wild, right?
The crowd went nuts, but get this: He pulls a classic move. Covers his mouth like, “Oops!” And then the translator jumps in, all like, “Nope, you didn’t hear a thing.” And everyone just loses it. Total chaos. I mean, I wasn’t there, but you could almost hear the room explode from across the world.
But here’s the thing: this isn’t the first time. Back in 2015, Horii was out there just dropping bombs without even trying — like confirming those 3DS Dragon Quest games were coming our way, well after Japan already had them. Oh, and let’s not forget when he casually mentioned Dragon Quest XI hitting the “NX” (remember when we called the Switch that?). He kinda does this, you know?
Anyway — wait, where was I? Oh, yeah. So, March 11 rolls around, a big date for “Chrono Trigger” fans ’cause it’s the 30th anniversary in Japan. Square Enix throws out hints of more celebrations, but keeps it all hush-hush. Typical, right? But hey, with Horii at the helm, who knows what’ll slip next? Can’t wait to see what goes down!
