Learn how to recruit Karsh in Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition. This guide explains the choice you'll need to make to add him to your party.

So, you want to get Karsh on your team in Chrono Cross: The Radical Dreamers Edition, huh? It's pretty straightforward, but you need to make the right choice at a specific story moment. If you miss it, don't worry too much, he'll join you later!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    During the main story, you'll reach a point where you need to rescue Riddel. This happens in Termina (Another World).
  2. 2
    You'll be presented with a choice: send either Karsh or Zoah to perform the rescue.
  3. 3
    To recruit Karsh directly: Choose Karsh to go rescue Riddel. He will then join your party.
  4. 4
    If you choose Zoah: If you pick Zoah to rescue Riddel, Karsh won't join you at this point. Don't sweat it, though! He'll eventually join your party later on the S.S. Invincible.
Tips
  • You might remember Karsh from an earlier boss fight at Cape Howl, where he appeared with Solt and Peppor. Don't let that past encounter worry you; he's a valuable ally once recruited.
  • The choice you make here affects who joins you immediately, but the other character will become a party member later anyway. So, either way, you'll eventually have access to both!

Karsh joins your party, adding his unique skills to your team.
