Take me there

AChrono CrossUnreal Engine 5 project, especially in light ofhow the recent re-release project was approached, has me interested.

If you’ve playedChrono Cross, odds are you rememberArni Village. It made an imprint on me when I first played it decades ago, and pieces of it are a part ofthe iconic intro. LikeFinal Fantasyvillages before it (Xcomes to mind), the idyllic seaside town has a chill vibe that we absolutely need in 2022: that includes an Unreal Engine 5 rendition.

Chrono Cross Unreal Engine 5

Crafted by Studio Logic, there’s a new version in tow (viewable below) that includes “a new shot, more landscape, props, and colors.” The music isa lovely guitar cover by Sam Griffin, which you can listen to here. Just listening to it and watching this screen saver go by: it’s still crazy to me to see people in 2022 who care aboutChrono Cross. I thought I was one of the few, enjoying it in silence in a crowded 1999. It turns out there’s more than dozens of us!

You can also grab theChrono CrossUnreal Engine 5 scene on Wallpaper Engine, where it clocks in at nearly 500MB. While some people might be tired of Unreal Engine project concepts, this one has done a great job of chilling out a busy day.
