Want to see [[Chrono Break]] debut someday? Then take action! Since petitions are cumbersome and provoke a negative image of fans, the best way to secure a new game is to write Square-Enix and let them know you'd buy it. You have several options at your disposal. To have maximum effect, you should send one-email and one real letter to Square-Enix of America, and also one e-mail and letter to Square-Enix of Japan. Read below for methods and sample letters. Remember that writing a physical letter is much more effective than sending an e-mail. A letter adds sincerity to your request and also is a physical object that can't simply be deleted. Also, remember that Square-Enix USA has '''considerably less power''' in making a decision over a new game than its Japanese counterpart. Pay the price of international postage and send one of our Japanese sample letters to Square-Enix Japan! Postal workers will help you get everything right.

This is required, as fans can then print out the sample letter in Japanese and mail it to Square Enix in Japan. '''If you can translate Japanese, please help us in this small regard!'''

The best way to request a new Chrono game is to do so in a civil, respectful manner. Remember that physical mail is preferred over internet mail as it carries more weight and is much more visible. It is also able to be passed up the corporate chain of command. Here is an example of a letter you may write to the company:

General Information

Want to see Chrono Break debut someday? Then take action! Since petitions are cumbersome and provoke a negative image of fans, the best way to secure a new game is to write Square-Enix and let them know you'd buy it. You have several options at your disposal. To have maximum effect, you should send one-email and one real letter to Square-Enix of America, and also one e-mail and letter to Square-Enix of Japan. Read below for methods and sample letters. Remember that writing a physical letter is much more effective than sending an e-mail. A letter adds sincerity to your request and also is a physical object that can't simply be deleted. Also, remember that Square-Enix USA has considerably less power in making a decision over a new game than its Japanese counterpart. Pay the price of international postage and send one of our Japanese sample letters to Square-Enix Japan! Postal workers will help you get everything right.

A huge thank-you goes to Kian Morris and a translator friend who helped with the Japanese.

E-Mail (USA)

SquareEnix has a Live Support feature on their website, which allows users to send an e-mail to an operator. It is located on this page. Additionally, SquareEnix lists a method of e-mail and snail mail in its privacy policy:

Letter (USA)

Writing letters is even more effective than sending e-mails, so take the time to compose one and fire it away at your local post office. Remember that SE USA has less influence in deciding new games than SE Japan, so take the time to send one to Japan as well. Here is the US address: 

 Square Enix, Inc.
6060 Center Drive, Suite 100
Los Angeles, CA 90045

Here are two sample letters you can send to them. 

Dear Square-Enix,

I am a fan of the Chrono series, which includes the games Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross. I very much enjoyed these titles, and am part of a large community of fans who share in my experiences. I am writing you to express my desire for a new Chrono game, and my full support in purchasing a new title. The series is unique, engaging, and very fun, and I would be overjoyed to see a new addition to its already outstanding lineup of games.

Sincerely,

Name.

Dear Square-Enix,

I played the games Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross a few years ago, and would love to see a new Chrono game come out. Is anything in development, or is there any news about a new title? I can't wait to play that franchise again.

The best way to request a new Chrono game is to do so in a civil, respectful manner. Remember that physical mail is preferred over internet mail as it carries more weight and is much more visible. It is also able to be passed up the corporate chain of command. Here is an example of a letter you may write to the company:


You may edit it at will; however, be sure not to fill it with insults or disrespectful comments of any kind. A positive tone must be maintained for any chance of change to exist. Remember what Lucca said on Opassa Beach: 

The Time Egg...
The ancient sage, Gasper,
once called it the Chrono
Trigger, you know!?
Each of us allows our
feelings to be a trigger...
Letting them loose changes
our world, time, and history!

We can all function as one Chrono Trigger, and bring a new game into the world. Now, let's get to it! And good luck dropping SE a line.

E-mail (Japan)

The Japanese website does not list an e-mail directly, but based on an e-mail test, it seems things sent to any e-mail with their basic URL in the title will get to them eventually. If you can find a real support e-mail on their website however, please let us know. For now, use this:
