This information should be taken with a grain of salt or at least treated with skepticism. While Yuji Horii would likely know if a Chrono Trigger remake is happening we have yet to see actual footage of the event. This information comes strictly from an attendee of who is said to have been present at the event in Naples. Square Enix has teased upcoming projects for Chrono Trigger, but did not confirm a remake.

The most likely explanation is that Horii made a comment about Chrono Trigger, perhaps saying a remake is in the works or at least planned, but was shut down before he could elaborate. Witnesses claim he made the comment regarding Chrono Trigger before the host whispered in his ear, after which he clamped a hand over his mouth.
There is no guarantee Square Enix is working on a remake of Chrono Trigger, but it feels good to hope there is one. Chrono Cross saw a remaster previously, so it is only fitting that one of the best JRPGs of all time gets the same treatment.
For now, fans will have to wait until the interview is posted online to see if what has been reported is accurate. Regardless, a remake of Chrono Trigger is long overdue, but fans may have more time to wait before it gets unveiled.
