Chrono Trigger PC Patch #3 Available

The Steam version of Chrono Trigger has received a new update with another one already on the way, which is quite commendable for a port of a 23 year old game. This latest patch improves the game’s UI, combat feedback and controls, gameplay speed, and deals with a fair share of bugs and issues. Here are the patch notes:

Hey everyone,
The team have been working hard on updating CHRONO TRIGGER on Steam and today we’ve released the third patch – here is a list of all the updates:

• The UI has been further updated for those using a controller or keyboard in a number of areas:
  • Whilst moving on the world map, in towns and in dungeons.
  • How options in dialog are displayed.
  • Shop screens.
  • Whilst selecting a time period to visit.
  • In mini-games too.
• Improvements have been made to battles
  • You can now flip between pages within menus with single button presses.
  • Available techs are immediately updated when recovering MP.
  • The duration the explanation window is shown at the top of the screen has been extended.
  • Changes have been made to the priority for which information is shown first when there are multiple messages in explanation windows.
  • A bug where some controls would still respond while the game is paused in battle has been fixed.
• Following the last update, we’ve continued to improve gameplay speed in areas where it previously slowed down.
• The difficulty has been made more forgiving in specific mini games during story events.
• Controller input is now disabled when the game is not active.
• Additional minor bug fixes.

Finally, we’re planning to release a fourth update for CHRONO TRIGGER later this month. This will include:

• Further changes and updates to the UI.
• The ability to rebind buttons for controllers, keyboard and mouse.

Thanks again from everyone on the CHRONO TRIGGER team for all of your support.
