It was nearly a yr 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 sport was, was additionally a really dangerous port.
Right here, amongst different issues, are a number of the complaints we had final April when first enjoying the sport on an OLED Change:
- Elaborate, pre-rendered backgrounds now look blurry and smeared
- 3D character fashions, rendered in increased res, stick out like a sore thumb within the new environments
- Fight usually stutters and feels unresponsive
- There aren’t save states (however there’s auto-saving within the overworld)
- There’s no choice to swap graphical kinds on the fly
- FMVs haven’t all the time been upscaled cleanly
- The HD fonts are clear however look misplaced
See what I imply? A foul 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 nicely they’ll repair them is anybody’s guess, however addressing them is not less than a begin.
Good day, everybody.
That is the CHRONO CROSS: THE RADICAL DREAMERS EDITION improvement workforce.
Following the launch of the sport final yr, we’re planning to launch an replace this month.
