“ The concept was that the Chrono Cross characters wander into the world of Another Eden and start a new adventure,” Kato said.

The three protagonists of Chrono Cross - Serge, Kid, and Harle - travel to another parallel world in Another Eden, which itself is a story about traveling parallel worlds. Yasunori Mitsuda, who composed the iconic soundtrack to Chrono Cross is also involved with Another Eden, making the team up only make sense. Kato, who also wrote and directed the 1999 PS1 sequel to Chrono Trigger, has been eager to give Cross it’s first real collaboration since its release over two decades ago. In its next update, Another Eden takes a larger step past that periphery into an actual collaboration, as the title officially crosses over with the criminally underrated Chrono Cross in a new special event. With Another Eden, Kato has long been poking at the periphery of titles like Chrono Trigger - where he served in much the same roles - with little allusions and references, like having a frog swordsman named Cyrus as one of the principle characters. It would not be shocking if you had never heard of Another Eden. The free-to-play mobile and PC RPG has quietly existed in those often-overlooked spaces for a number of years, helmed by industry veteran Masato Kato as its scenario director and script writer.
