Celebrate, Ace Attorney fans, because Ace Attorney is planned for the Switch!
All right, there hasn’t actually been a new game announcement yet, and it was pretty much assumed that the series would move to the Switch if it replaced the 3DS.
However, we not only have confirmation, but also a time frame.
In part of a Japanese interview with Capcom, translated by Court-Records, Capcom’s COO Haruhiro Tsujimoto said the company is developing games to appear on the Switch in fiscal year 2018, including Ace Attorney.
Since it’s fiscal year 2018, that could mean calendar year 2019, but it’s good to know they already have Ace Attorney plans.
But what will it be? The next mainline game? A new spin-off? A collection of the Investigations games or the Dai Gyakuten Saiban games (hopefully localized in either of those cases)?
For now, we’ll have to wait and see. What do you expect from Ace Attorney on the Switch?

I’ll write on this later, but my biggest surprise is that a CAPCOM executive knows Ace Attorney exists.
And apparently considers it a major enough series to mention by name!
