Square Enix had formally published the Chrono Trigger soundtrack on Spotify, based on the Nintendo DS version of the game. The company also more recently released Piano Soundscape and Orchestral arrangement albums based on the same soundtrack.

Following the inaugural release on the SNES, Chrono Trigger also had ports on the PlayStation and Nintendo DS. For ongoing platforms, Chrono Trigger is readily available on iOS, Android, and PC via Steam.
