Chrono Trigger, the 1995 RPG game from Square Enix, has had an enormous influence on recent indie projects. It’s inspiration is clear in JRPG-style games like last year’s Sea of Stars, 2022’s Chained Echoes, 2018’s CrossCode, and 2017’s Cosmic Star Heroine. As made clear by the announcement of Threads of Time, a new throwback RPG with Octopath Traveler 2-style 2.5D art that made its debut at Tokyo Game Show, the trend of Chrono Trigger homages won’t be coming to an end any time in the near future.
