Apollo Justice and friends - Image 1Capcom, developer and publisher of the Ace Attorney Series, has recently announced that Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney is scheduled for release in North America in early 2008.  Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney is Capcom's fourth installment in the highly successful Ace Attorney series, as well as the first Ace Attorney installment that is not a port of a previous game for the Gameboy Advance.

The game will feature rookie defense attorney Apollo Justice, replacing Phoenix Wright as the main protagonist in the game. He may be new, but don't "Wright" him off just yet. Capcom has given Attorney Justice the ability to discern if people are lying by studying their body language. On top of that, he has help in the person of his magician assistant, Trucy, his mentor, Kristoph Gavin and a familiar face from the first game in the series.

On top of the new characters, Capcom has also added a new "Crime Recreation Mode"  to Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney. Simply put, this interesting feature will allow players recreate the actual crime that has been committed and uncover valuable clues to the case in the process.  

Stay tuned for more info on this title in future updates!

I dunno how the re-creation of the crime will be played out. But it seems that the fans in North America will be finally getting this game.



After that said speculation of Capcom wanting more fans to pitch in to buy the third game in order for this to release to the U.S

I don't know how the re-creation thingy will work out either. Sounds intriguing, though.



And yup, it seems Ace Attorney 3 did well enough to warrant part 4's translation for the US market. ^^
