Chrono Cross is an RPG developed by Square (now Square Enix) and released for the PlayStation in 1999 (in Japan) and 2000 (in North America). It is the sequel to the highly popular Chrono Trigger from 1995. The game features a deeper, more complex storyline, combining elements of dimensional travel, time changes, and strategic battles. Chrono Cross tells the story of Serge, a young man who never imagined he would play a part in a world-changing event. However, after an accident causes him to wake up in an alternate world—a parallel reality different from his own—he begins to search for the truth behind the changes occurring in the world and his connection to them. His journey leads him to meet a variety of characters, each with their own backstories and motivations.
