Square Enix has today confirmed that the Nintendo DS re-make of its classic SNES RPG, Chrono Trigger, will arrive in North America on November 25.

Originally released in 1995 for the Super Nintendo, Chrono Trigger is regarded amongst critics as one of the most accomplished RPGs of all time. And with its Final Fantasy series rebirthing on the Nintendo DS too, it makes sense for Square Enix to follow them up with Chrono Trigger.

Story
When a newly developed teleportation device malfunctions at the Millennial Fair, young Crono must travel through time to rescue his misfortunate companion from an intricate web of past and present perils. The swashbuckling adventure that ensues soon unveils an evil force set to destroy the world, triggering Crono’s race against time to change the course of history and bring about a brighter future.

Features
