Ace Attorney 5 may not have a confirmed release date in the west yet, but the game will be coming to retail in Japan in just a few days on July 25. The new game will be named Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies, and will feature a whole host of both new and old characters, returning from previous entries in the series.
One of these returning characters has been confirmed to be Apollo Justice – the young rookie attorney who had his own spin-off game, during a period where Phoenix Wright left the law business. He has grown up a little, and will feature quite prominently in the new title. VG24/7 spotted a Japanese video concerning his return, which can be seen below – although all of the speech was in Japanese and has been edited. But it shows what Apollo will look like in the new title.
Apollo was an interesting new character and it is nice to see that he will be making a return to the series, rather than just be forgotten about now that Phoenix Wright is back. This is surely one of the most anticipated 3DS titles of the year, and we will bring you more news on the PAL release as soon as we have it.
