You might have noticed that Capcom has been bringing back some of their “old properties” to modern systems to see how they do amongst current gamers. They brought back a DS classic via Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective, and in January, they’re bringing in the second half of the Ace Attorney franchise with the Apollo Justice trilogy. But as franchise fans know, there’s another element to the series that hasn’t been updated for modern systems, and that’s the Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth titles. Two were made, but only one of them was brought to the West. With all of these “updates,” fans have been asking Capcom for the same treatment with these games.
The good news is that Capcom is aware of your desires. Siliconera talked with Kenichi Hashimoto about it, and he did reply to the suggestion. The bad news is that his response might not be what you’re looking for:
“The development team is aware that fans are hoping for this. Unfortunately, we have no announcements at this time.”
Obviously, “at this time” could mean that something is coming in the future. So while you may not get it right now or in 2024, that doesn’t mean it won’t happen! So keep sending out your wishes for this…and Ace Attorney 7!
