Capcom Planning Western Release for Ace Attorney 5

Phoenix also has a brand-new look.

Update (9/6 at 10:18 PM EST): Capcom says that they are "planning to release Gyakuten Saiban (Ace Attorney) 5 in the West. We’ll have more news soon".

It has been revealed that Ace Attorney 5 is being planned for a western release. This news comes from a recent comment by Capcom UK to Pocket Gamer.

The upcoming title takes place one year after the events of Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, and that Phoenix Wright will return as the main character. In addition, new leaked Famitsu scans reveal that Wright has a new partner, and that the game will incorporate 3D models.

Ace Attorney 5 releases in Japan next year.

As I said before, Phoenix's story has been told.  His character arc is over.  If the game's going to take place a year after Apollo Justice, it should star him instead.
There was a Signature here. It's gone now.

Wow. I wasn't aware people really welcomed Apollo like that. Nice to know, I should give it a try since I have only played the 3 main Phoenix Write games

I'd prefer an announcement of Monster Hunter 3G being localized from Capcom. Hopefully that ship hasn't sailed yet.
