The "present-day" episodes of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Trials and Tribulations take place between 2018 and 2019, so Memories could take place in 2013 or 2014. A natural solution would be to consider Turnabout Beginnings, which takes place "6 Years Ago".
Phoenix has only had one girlfriend in his life: Dahlia Hawthorne. And that was basically the textbook definition of “unhealthy relationship.” Phoenix became dangerously obsessed with her, she tried to kill him, and he was secretly in love with her sister the whole time.
The nickname "Nick" (used by his partner, Maya Fey) was chosen based on its believability and similarity to the sound of "Phoenix".

He began wearing a special visor over his eyes that enabled him to see, although it was limited in that he could not see red on a white background. Considering his old self to have "died," he took on the new name "Godot".

Even on a surface level, the relationship between Phoenix and Miles is unique. Throughout the Ace Attorney series, it's clear these two men genuinely love and care for each other. Once in a while, they manage to speak honestly about those feelings.

Cases tend to be localized within the city, though some take place well outside city limits, such as Kurain Village and Flight I-390. The main characters of Ace Attorney are lawyers who investigate crime scenes and then take their evidence to court. Throughout the stories, these lawyers work under an intricate system of rules in the crime scene as well as the courtroom .
The Ace Attorney series logo. Ace Attorney is a franchise centered around a series of visual novel / adventure hybrid video games developed and published by Capcom. It began as a trilogy of comedic legal thrillers known as Gyakuten Saiban (逆転裁判; lit.
The fourth game sold 160,000 copies on the day of release in Japan, with a total of 250,000 units moved during the first week of release. Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth sold 172,000 units in the week of its release and 42,000 the following week.
Capcom has stated that as of December 2020 the series has sold 8.0 million units worldwide. This success makes Ace Attorney Capcom's 9th best selling game franchise. In addition, as of December 2020 Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy became the best selling individual release of the series with 1.0 million units sold, thereby being celebrated as one of Capcom's Platinum Titles.
Produced by A-1 Pictures, the first season, which aired from April to September 2016, covered Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and most of Justice for All, while the second season, which aired from October 2018 to March 2019, covered Trials and Tribulations .
There are some other games in different genres, and major Ace Attorney characters have been featured in other games both within and outside of Capcom.
The Ace Attorney site Court Records uses multiple timelines: one for the original trilogy, and one for each subsequent game. However, ambiguities and potential contradictions cause difficulties in attempting to construct a single unified timeline for the entire series. This can cause problems when attempting to determine the age of one character relative to another.
There is a conflict between the no-birthday principle and the direct dating of events in the series. The direct dating is practically unambiguous; the no-birthday principle is less so. Under this modification of the no-birthday principle, each time period is assigned two years instead of one, as follows:
However, that same document also lists Great Ace Attorney for a Q1 2021 launch and that's now being released on July 27, 2021. As such, that falls within Q3. Considering many games have faced delays due to the global pandemic, it's not unreasonable to assume both might've faced issues.
Considering the (likely working title) name given in the Capcom documents, Ace Attorney 7 is believed to be set after Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice, which came out in 2016. That involved us visiting the Kingdom of Khura'in, seeing the return of Maya Fey.
Alternatively, Ace Attorney 7 could've been pushed back so it doesn't clash with Great Ace Attorney. Until Capcom officially confirms it though, we'll have to wait for further details.
Ace Attorney is a series of adventure video game legal dramas developed by Capcom. The first entry in the series, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, was released in 2001; since then, five further main series games, as well as various spin-offs and high-definition remasters for newer game consoles, have been released. Additionally, the series has seen adaptations in the form of a live-action film and an anime, and has been the base for manga series, drama CDs, musicals and stage plays .
The Ace Attorney Investigations spin-off series splits the gameplay into investigation phases and rebuttal phases , the latter of which is similar to the courtroom trials of the main series. During the investigation phases, the player searches for evidence and talks to witnesses and suspects. Things the player character notices in the environment are saved as thoughts; the player can use the "logic" system to connect two such thoughts to gain access to new information. At some points, the player can create hologram reproductions of the crime scene, through which they can discover new information that would otherwise be hidden. Ace Attorney Investigations 2 introduces "logic chess", where the player interrogates witnesses in a timed sequence that is visualized as a game of chess, with the player aiming to destroy the other character's chess pieces. To do this, they need to build up their advantage in the discussion by alternating between speaking and listening, and then choose to go on the offensive.
It was released for the Nintendo 3DS in 2015 in Japan; it has also been released for Android and iOS in 2017 in Japan. The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve is the second entry in The Great Ace Attorney series.
The series currently consists of six main series games and five spin-offs.
The Ace Attorney series has been credited with helping to popularise visual novels in the Western world. Vice magazine credits the Ace Attorney series with popularising the visual novel mystery format, and notes that its success anticipated the resurgence of point-and-click adventure games as well as the international success of Japanese visual novels. According to Danganronpa director Kazutaka Kodaka, Ace Attorney ' s success in North America was due to how it distinguished itself from most visual novels with its gameplay mechanics, which Danganronpa later built upon and helped it also find success in North America.
The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is a compilation of both Adventures and Resolve to be released in July 2021 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Microsoft Windows. This will be the first time both games are officially available outside of Japan.
The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve is the second entry in The Great Ace Attorney series. It was released for the Nintendo 3DS in 2017 in Japan; it has also been released for Android and iOS in 2018 in Japan.
Ace Attorney is a popular visual novel adventure game franchise that places players in control of a defense attorney.
The Great Ace Attorney: Adventures serves as the first entry to The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles. There are five episodes as well as downloadable content.
The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles serves as a du ology collection for both The Great Ace Attorney: Adventures and The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve.
The fourth episode is first in terms of time, while the first episode takes place five years before the rest of the game.
There are five full-length episodes to play through with this game. Many of the same elements return that were in the previous game. However, this one does mark a return of the fingerprint dusting game mechanic.
The agreed-upon crown jewel of the Ace Attorney series, Trials and Tribulations allowed players to act as three different attorneys throughout the game while also bringing back important characters that make sense in the plot, rather than “just because." If being able to play as Mia Fey wasn't enough to earn first place on this list, then Phoenix Wright's college backstory most certainly is.
With the Ace Attorney series nearing its 20th anniversary, it seems fitting to look back on the series so far. Each of its 11 games has tried something new, always experimenting and testing the best ways to tell a court-based visual novel.
Another hidden gem of the Ace Attorney series, many have played Ace Attorney Investigations 2 through the outstanding fan translation available online. Not only is this another Japanese-exclusive game in the series, but it also stands out as another sequel better than the original.
Justice For All is a worthy sequel to Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, though it excels in different ways than its predecessor. The intrigue of Edgeworth's disappearance combined with the introduction of a new Von Karma creates a curiosity that can only be sated by pouring over every word of the game. Akemi Kimura does a phenomenal job composing music for every mood and scenario, leaving a lasting impression for weeks afterward.
The game doesn't shy away from comedic moments either, having its share of fun with clowns and amnesia plots, but will throw you for a loop with its last case. No exaggeration : Justice For All has one of the most intense moments of conflict and grey morality in a video game to this date.
This ranks lower on the list due to its being a crossover, containing Professor Layton-style puzzles and therefore less actual Ace Attorney gameplay. The only main series characters that make an appearance Phoenix and Maya (and Edgeworth, briefly.) Nevertheless, this game is a worthy tribute to both series, with wonderfully-crafted 3D models and excellent music throughout.
