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."

Is Justice for All a sequel to Phoenix Wright?

Justice For All is a worthy sequel to Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, though it excels in different ways than its predecessor.

With many fans expecting a sequel to Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney (and many fans disliking the new character), Capcom took a very different route. The first main series game on the 3DS, Dual Destinies arguably has one of the most fantastic soundtracks for a 3DS game, with renowned composer Noriyuki Iwadare at his best.

9. Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth

As the title suggests, investigation-type gameplay was first introduced in Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth and marked a huge, polarizing change from the first four games.

8. Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

In the scheme of crossover games, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright was decidedly mediocre, especially for two franchises that had been around long enough to build up two solid fan bases. Expectations were never really met from either side when it came to playing as Professor Layton or Phoenix Wright.

7. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice

The most recent game in the main series, Spirit of Justice, has the spirit of the four previous games, but it didn’t quite live up to fans’ expectations.

6. Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney

Being the first Ace Attorney game where you play as a character other than Phoenix Wright, Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney worked surprisingly well. Apollo Justice, the apprentice of sorts to Phoenix Wright, is actually a loveable and fun protagonist for the game. Plus, he had the ability to “perceive” at a deeper level than his predecessor.

5. The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles

This Switch bundle gave us two brilliant Ace Attorney spin-offs that were previously not released in English: The Great Ace Attorney: Adventures and The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve.

While the main series is set in the near future, these are far-distant prequels that take place in Meiji era Japan and star Phoenix Wright’s ancestor, Ryunosuke Naruhodo. After traveling to Britain in order to continue studying, he crosses paths with none other than Sherlock Holmes–or rather, Herlock Sholmes. Yes, Capcom decided that for the Western release of these games, it was safer to go with the time-honored tradition of renaming Holmes to Sholmes.

When will the Ace Attorney Chronicles be released?

Is Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright on 3DS?

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. Only ever released on the 3DS, this crossover brings the courtroom deductions of the Ace Attorney series together with the puzzle-solving investigations of the Professor Layton series in a standalone story about witch trials in a strange, magical city. While I have my criticisms of its story, it’s both an homage to the two series it comes from, as well as a game that can be played without knowledge of either. Unfortunately, there’s no sign of it coming to any other platform (and it never even goes on sale when the other games do).
