Square Enix Shuts Down Fan-Made Chrono Trigger Sequel

Posted by Soulskill on from the suspicious-timing dept.

KIllagouge writes "Just days before the release of Chrono Trigger: Crimson Echoes, SquareEnix sent a Cease & Desist letter to Chrono Compendium to stop everything to do with Crimson Echoes. People might remember when they did this with Chrono Resurrection. Seems to be the growing trend; instead of listening to their fans, which would net them even more money, game developers continue to lock down old gaming IP. A copy of the C&D letter is available online." The fan project had been in development since 2004 and was 98% complete.

  1. Never heard of them by L4t3r4lu5 · · Score: -1, Troll

    Now that I have heard of them, and know how they behave towards community projects, I'll avoid them at all costs.

    I can make do without their game. Can they make do without my money?
