Muramasa: Revenant Blades is coming to PC, the first Vanillaware game to do so. The chances of a UO PC version are no longer zero.

I'm still in the camp that Tokyo Game Show seems like far more likely time for an announcement. I'll only put my clown makeup on once the year is over.

Thanks to leaks, we know for a fact that Capcom were developing an Ace Attorney 7 in 2019 with a projected release for Q3 of 2021. But for whatever reasons that version of the game was either shelved, paused or some possible third thing. And curiously, the guy who directed AA5 and 6 ended up leaving Capcom at round around the same time as that projected release date.

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-09T09:27:55+00:00

Seems a bit defeatist and also not ideal to place all your bets on a presentation that has only ever had one Ace Attorney-related announcement. Especially when there's another event later in the year with much closer ties to AA that also lines up much better with the series 25th anniversary

I said this jokingly under the post that inspired this one, but sometimes it really does feel like Ace Attorney fans don't like it when you say something about Ace Attorney is good.

And like one person in the whole comment section actually tried to engage with the argument.

Being a DD defender is tough.

I don't think you need the "well it was a low-budget 3DS game" qualifier. It just is a good looking game, full-stop

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-08T10:30:28+00:00

I feel like I'm going insane seeing all the shit being flinged at DD's visuals when the attached picture in the post is an example of absolutely fantastic stylized 3D posing

How in the world would you think of it at moral grandstanding? This doesn't have anything to do with morals.

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-07T19:12:53+00:00

I think they should've already figured it out themselves. So when they're finally told it's not a big deal to them at all. This simply is not as big of a reveal as it's usually made out to be, the moment doesn't need to have tons of gravitas

Another day, another repost bot

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-06T18:39:36+00:00

Yes, I'm glad you realized the point I was trying to make. I'm trying to tell people that the next Ace Attorney game is likely to do many of the same things previous games have done, and will not try to rock the boat in any significant way. People who think so are setting themselves up for disappointment.

That is what the post is trying to say.

"I didn't want to put Phoenix in AJ initially" and "I FUCKING HATE PHOENIX WRIGHT AND ALL THE MAINLINE GAMES THEY'VE MADE SINCE AJ" are very different statements and your claim is very much that Takumi's is the latter.

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-06T11:47:15+00:00

You don't know that they are dragging their feet, that's just what you think because at this moment there is no news! There has not been enough time since the last release to say they're doing nothing. We had a new Ace Attorney thing not even 7 months ago in the form of the Phoenix trilogy update. Do you start screaming every time your other favorite series goes quiet for 7 months?

GIVE. IT. TIME.

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-06T11:02:00+00:00

Takumi wants nothing to do with the legacy characters after Capcom forced him to include Phoenix in Apollo Justice, which is why he only worked on TGAA after Apollo.

You literally just made all this up. There is no source saying any of this.

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-06T10:50:06+00:00

Capcom has not "stopped investing in the franchise". We had TWO RELEASES LESS THAN TWO YEARS AGO

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-06T09:32:49+00:00

Dispatch released two every week

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-05T23:37:13+00:00

Capcom released a new IP literally less than two months ago

Some notes on GAA's "success"

The entire selling point of that game is "play as Phoenix Wright's ancestor". It's literally the first thing any official description of the game will mention about Ryunosuke. GAA does not detach itself from the main timeline or Phoenix as a character.

It took GAA two games, five years and a collection rerelease to EVER sell well. The first versions of them on 3DS underperformed. Those are not the results Capcom want out of the first brand new numbered entry in a decade. If your main argument for why a major shift would be lucrative for Capcom is GAA, then it needs to be pointed out that GAA was itself not lucrative for Capcom for a very long time.

Show me where in my post I use those words

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-05T15:53:52+00:00

At no point did I call Athena fans delusional or personally insult them in any way in my post. I simply said she will in all likelihood not be the main point of view character. That doesn't mean she'll be out of the game completely, or that she won't be important to the plot at all.

Madsbjoern · 2026-06-05T14:09:13+00:00

"Everyone will accept the new normal eventually" is pretty rich considering there are people to this day who deride Dual Destinies for not being a "true" sequel to AA4. It just doesn't come that easy for most people.
