Explore Apollo’s backstories on new hardware
The Ace Attorney series is getting another collection, this time focusing on the second trilogy of attorney adventures. Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy will bring more of the series to modern platforms in early 2024.
Announced at last night’s Capcom Showcase, the trilogy collection will contain three Ace Attorney titles. Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies, and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirt of Justice are all included in the compilation.
The games will be in full HD, and include seven language options as well as voice recordings. Not much more has been shown about it, other than that it brings the three entries together into one bundle. I imagine it will be packaged the same as the original trilogy collection was.
And justice for all
This compilation is a very intriguing collection of games. While the original trilogy followed the first three games, showing lawyer Phoenix Wright’s early career and journey, this second trilogy switches gears and looks towards Apollo Justice.
Apollo is a personal favorite of mine, and I’m really happy to see his trilogy get a collection. These games were part of the 3DS catalogue, so seeing them escape the shutdown is nice. As far as the actual games, I feel like reception on them is a bit more mixed compared to the original Ace Attorney trilogy. That said, I personally enjoy these entries quite a bit. Spirit of Justice actually contains one of my favorite cases in the entire Ace Attorney series!
Hopefully, having three collections at this point—the original, the Apollo games, and the Great Ace Attorney duology—means a new entry is a possibility. If Layton can stage a comeback, so can Phoenix, Apollo, Athena, and the gang.
