Chrono Cross PS4 Update Is Available Now, Frame Rate Fixed

Square Enix has released the all-important update for Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition just as quickly as it confirmed it following almost a year of silence: it's available now on PS4. You're looking for version number 1.0.1.0; the patch notes are as follows:

• Framerate improvements
• Changes to the growth system for Pip
• Other minor bug fixes

Reports from users on Reddit playing the JRPG on PS5 via backwards compatibility suggest the frame rate is now fixed, with battles running at 60 frames-per-second and adventuring out in the field hitting a 30fps cap. Therefore, while you may still want to play Chrono Trigger first, it sounds like this PS4 remaster is finally worth playing. It's £15.99/$19.99 on the PS Store, but has never gone on sale. Since it's now in a good place, though, Square Enix could hand it a discount in the near future.
