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:
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.
