In an extensive 2024 retrospective wrap-up with Famitsu, Capcom producer Kenichi Hashimoto teased an upcoming campaign for the tenth anniversary of The Great Ace Attorney: Adventures. More information on that will appear in 2025. [Thanks, Famitsu!]
In his section of the Famitsu interview, Hashimoto stated that The Great Ace Attorney: Adventures would be ten years old in 2025. To thank fans for all their support over the years, he’s been preparing some surprises so they can enjoy this milestone. The idea of gratitude is also the keyword he chose for the year.
As well, Hashimoto reported that he hopes to increase the number of Ace Attorney fans. With the release of Ace Attorney Investigations and Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy, the entire series (excluding the Layton crossover) is available on modern consoles, making it easier for newcomers to jump into the series.
The Great Ace Attorney; Adventures was the first game in the The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles, which came out as a compilation in the west. It’s a spin-off prequel series taking place during the end of the 19th century. It follows Japanese university student Ryunosuke Naruhodo, who becomes a lawyer in Britain through circumstance. With the help of his trusty judicial assistant Susato Mikotoba, he furthers his studies as a lawyer. He also befriends Herlock Sholmes (Sherlock Holmes) and his adoptive daughter Iris Wilson (Iris Watson).
The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is available on the PS4, Nintendo Switch, and Windows PC.
