It is now. http://www.joystiq.com/2012/09/05/ac...us-and-europe/



Edit: And it turns out, the accused girl and the partner character are two different, new female characters. Screenshots and artwork of the Japanese version can be found at [ http://www.capcom.co.jp/gyakutensaiban/5/ ].

Ace Attorney 5 confirmed for worldwide release:
Ace Attorney Investigations 2 still untranslated:

Very happy that Phoenix Wright is back. Yes, I'm going to preorder this, and I've imported AAI2's "Greatest Hits" Japanese version (yay for region free games!) so I can at least play that one legally for the time being.

Capcom really knows how to tug one's heart-strings.

Ace Attorney Investigations 2 still untranslated:

The fan translation is well under way. They were even looking for people to help out with text insertion a little while ago.

I'm staying away from the fan translation, though... at least in terms of downloading. I know I'll need a walkthrough for my Japanese copy of AAI2 (when it arrives - I'm anticipating before the end of the month), and may use a transcript if they have it available.

I've already run into 2 or 3 people planning to "sample" AA5, and that's 2 or 3 people too many.

Wright is back? And it takes back after Apollo? Interesting...

Time to pick up a 3DS!
