Yuji Horii let slip (Yuji Horii, letting something slip?!) that a Chrono Trigger remake is in the works at Comicon Naples today, according to multiple people who were in attendance. If anyone was there and has a recording of what Horii said, I'd appreciate your share.

Old games are good. Play them as they are.
what abt CT needs changing?
Just make an emulated version of it available on modern platforms and you're good.
But I guess while we're on the subject, people have an annoying tendency to disregard the original version of a game as obsolete when a well-received remake comes out.
Because as we all know, "old = bad, new = better"
Though there probably isn’t a game that needs a remake less than Chrono Trigger. It’s aged incredibly well.
A port would be great though, the fact it didn't get a Nintendo Switch port is actually criminal which makes me think they must have something planned at least...
I'm 39 so maybe younger people prefer dubs now that they're always available via streaming.
If it's a Square-Enix employee they would have the same knowledge Horii himself would have about current projects.
NO DAMNIT I REFUSE TO GIVE UP THE DREAM!

I think the translator struggled too. In the rest of the interview he also seems to be making stuff up or omitting important bits. It's super hard to understand what Horii is saying so I think at that point he panicked and brought up the rumor as a segue.
"Tra l'altro io credo di aver afferrato, se ricordo bene, che è in corso un remake del gioco o è già uscito".
