''Final Fantasy Chronicles'' was commercially and critically successful, becoming the top selling [[PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]] title for two weeks, and scoring an average of 89 out of 100 in [[Metacritic]]'s aggregate, a review tallying website.<ref name=MC/><ref name="ngi">{{cite web |date=July 13, 2001 |title=Final Fantasy Chronicles Tops the Charts |url=http://psx.ign.com/articles/096/096465p1.html |work=[[IGN]] |access-date=March 28, 2007 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060915083421/http://psx.ign.com/articles/096/096465p1.html |archive-date=September 15, 2006}}</ref> Gaming website [[IGN]] rated it 9.4 and awarded an "Editor's Choice Award", calling the game a "must buy" for RPG fans.<ref name=IGN/> It was a runner-up for ''GameSpot''{{'}}s annual "Best PlayStation Game" award, which went to ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3]]''.<ref name=bestworst2001>{{cite web | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020803185618/http://gamespot.com/gamespot/features/video/bestof_2001/ | url=http://gamespot.com/gamespot/features/video/bestof_2001/ | title=''GameSpot''{{'}}s Best and Worst Video Games of 2001 | author=''GameSpot VG'' Staff | date=February 23, 2002 | work=[[GameSpot]] | archive-date=August 3, 2002 | url-status=dead}}</ref>

[[GameSpot]] reviewer [[Brad Shoemaker]] gave the game an 8.5, but cited "muffled sound effects" in ''Final Fantasy IV'', and was displeased with frequent loading in ''Chrono Trigger''. He added that the visuals were "stupendous" when the games were originally released, but they now look dated and will "turn off those looking for a bigger thrill for their gaming dollar".<ref name=Spot/> Marcus Lai of Gaming Age was disappointed with a lack of additions, calling the ports "barebone games" and claiming that the [[full motion video]]s are "nice touches to both games but don't add much".<ref>{{cite web | title=Final Fantasy Chronicles Review for PlayStation | url=http://www.gaming-age.com/cgi-bin/reviews/review.pl?sys=psx&game=ffc | work=Gaming Age | access-date=July 2, 2007 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120404090857/http://www.gaming-age.com/404.html | archive-date=April 4, 2012}}</ref>
