Cris Tales is a time-traveling homage to Japanese role-playing games

Cris Tales coming in 2020 from Maximum Games indie label Modus, it revealed during the PC Gaming Show today during the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles. It’s from developers Dreams Uncorporated and SYCK, and it’s going to be on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Switch.

It’s a Japanese role-playing game, and its gameplay conceit has time travel in the past, present, and future (sounds like Chrono Trigger, one of the best-regarded and most-loved JPRGs ever made). It has a cartoonish look and rich colors, and it looks to have turn-based combat as well.
