== Editor Comment ==
.hack//LINK -Chrono Link- is the fully remade version from its PSP version which was released 10 years ago, it might be something like reboot, but not so reboot that everyone might expect. 
It brings a lot more change from the original, as Chrono Link will bringing a greater and expansion content, including separating the titles into a three-games.
Although Chrono Link will serve as the second volume to LINK, while .hack//RIVES will taking a charge as the first volume of the story and will bring a major different direction and contradiction toward the game.
However, the original LINK and Chrono Links are a different title with a different continuation but lead-up to the same conclusion, however, it does have the biggest retconned story to do.
Chrono Link will be something that very different from original LINK did and bringing major evolution to the dothack series, it has a greater new vision which had been a lot into and how to expand the actual story of LINK to be much more original than repeating the same formula over and over again, also bringing new major story elements and developing characters which is something the original couldn't do it.
But even vision of Chrono Link was different from the original, it also improving and polishing the elements of the original vision while expanding its element into much deeper than before also bring back moments which were lost 10 years ago or been cut from the final version, it might be something to look forward to new development for Tokio, Saika, and AIKA which were never even had a chance in the original did, even though there's different how direction story progress.
With how the story tied up with RIVES, including various characters will appear in Chrono Link as it continuing the story where it left off, including Akira Yoshinori who will also become a main character to the story, also bringing a new and never seen moment which only can experience in Chrono Link.
