Square Enix has announced that it will release a number of patches for Chrono Trigger over the coming months. The first patches will be coming later this month and although the publisher did not share their release notes, it did reveal that they will add an option to switch between the current high-resolution graphics and the original SNES visuals.
As Square Enix stated:
“We’re aiming to release the first of these patches in the first half of April, and the biggest change is that it will include an option to switch between the current high-resolution graphics, and the original graphical style of CHRONO TRIGGER.
We’ll post a full list of changes here when the first patch is released. For now, be assured that we’re working very hard on adjusting, updating and supporting CHRONO TRIGGER on Steam.”
This basically means that PC gamers won’t have to rely on mods in order to remove the game’s blurry filters or the game’s new sprites (that are obviously coming from the mobile version).

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

FF V &VI patches when?
Waiting for the same thing man.
Wonder what they’re gonna do about the content that was added in the DS version. Pull from DS or keep mobile sprites?
The mobile version has the same content as the DS
version (as it is basically the DS version downgraded to mobiles) so there will be no issues.
Ya, and I’m wondering if they’ll pull assets from DS or mobile version. As you said, mobile is downgraded.
They basically took the DS version (and its contents) and downgraded for the mobile specs.
But since the DS content wasn’t in the SNES version, I believe they’ll rework the pixel art to make it loyal to the SNES aesthetic.
Actually, considering the DS version used the exact same pixel art as the SNES version, and all the new content was in a pixel art form, it’s literally just a situation of them fixing it all.
All you need is a emulator and a rom, thats it !!! no port no patches
Better late than never. Would really love to see FFV and VI get the same treatment.
you never expect theyll take months to fix what a modder did in matter of days?
Good,I might reconsider to buy this since they fix it. I hope they also fix secret of Mana again..
It never had any problems whatsoever, except being ugly.
From what I heard there’s seems still some problem unfixed
