Chrono Cross’ Wonky Port Lastly Getting Some Fixes

It was nearly a 12 months in the past that Sq. Enix launched Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Version, a “remastered” model of the 1999 traditional on the PC, Xbox One, PS4 and Change that, nearly as good as the unique recreation was, was additionally a really dangerous port.

Right here, amongst different issues, are a number of the complaints we had final April when first taking part in the sport on an OLED Change:

• Elaborate, pre-rendered backgrounds now look blurry and smeared
• 3D character fashions, rendered in greater res, stick out like a sore thumb within the new environments
• Fight typically stutters and feels unresponsive
• There aren’t save states (however there may be auto-saving within the overworld)
• There’s no choice to swap graphical kinds on the fly
• FMVs haven’t at all times been upscaled cleanly
• The HD fonts are clear however look misplaced

See what I imply? A nasty port! The sport, and followers, deserved higher. And higher is what they’re about to get, with Sq. Enix promising an replace coming later this month that can attempt to repair a number of the model’s issues. What number of of them they’ll repair, and the way properly they’ll repair them is anybody’s guess, however addressing them is a minimum of a begin.

Whats up, everybody.

That is the CHRONO CROSS: THE RADICAL DREAMERS EDITION improvement group.

Following the launch of the sport final 12 months, we’re planning to launch an replace this month.

The replace consists of a variety of modifications, similar to framerate enhancements, modifications to the expansion system for Pip, and fixes for different bugs.
