I want Maya as main partner and Ema as detective. Fuck Gumshoe.

Sooooo will they do something regarding her and Phoenix's romance or will they tip toe around the subject as always?


There's never been any tapdancing, there's really no chemistry at all there. Simmer down Pearls. :p


The best to hope for is wondering when the hell
Iris
is getting out of prison, since a number of years have passed at this point. Would love to see her in this game too since we're dealing with the Kurain so heavily apparently. :D


Love what they've done with Maya's design with this, I really can't wait to play this.
Especially since this trailer also had the first appearance of Athena in it too. <3
 
FINALLY. The modern Phoenix games have at last been redeemed! Once the best partner, always the best partner. :)

My hype for AA 6 just shot through the roof.

I'm actually playing Trials and Tribulations right now, after having just finished Justice for All last week and the first game last summer. It's kind of a shame you guys seem to be "eh" on the rest of the series, I was looking forward to Apollo Justice.


(Thanks for the spoiler tags, though! Don't think I got anything spoiled)

For me, Apollo Justice is the main 'dip', with AA5 being a return to form, but with a severe case of handholding. It's my second favourite game (third, if you count the Investigations Series), but it's because it didn't bother me as most people.

Phoenix, Maya, Apollo, Nayuta. Sorry Athena and Leifa.
 
Apollo Justice was mostly just... uninteresting. The third case was particularly tedious. Major spoiler:
I wonder if Capcom are going to pretend like the whole "Trucy and Apollo are siblings without knowing it" subplot never happened.

I kind of wonder if later marketing will focus more on Apollo's side of the story. Right now they're saying "dual protagonists" and all that, but man if this latest blowout wasn't putting the focus on Kurain.

They got a lot closer in AA5 so I guess they'll eventually reveal it. If the magician plot returns in this game it'll definitely be adressed.

At least, I hope.

The reason seems to be that
that particular subplot was Takumi's doing, and the new team perhaps don't want to touch on it unless he has plans.
But with Takumi working on a trilogy of his own Ace Attorney games that I'll never get to play because life isn't fair and Capcom are the worst, I don't see why they can't touch upon AA4's plot threads at this point.

That and according to the Dual Destinies art book, one of the ideas for Apollo's coat was that (maybe AA4 spoilers?)
it belonged to his father. So they've at least considered going back to the "Apollo's family" story.
Still funny how they dressed him up like Raiden before even considering a reason for him looking like that.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Her expression looks much less innocent. Not necessarily in a bad way, but her wide eyed sense of wonder seems to have been replaced by a sense of maturity to an extent.

Can't wait to see if her personality developed, or if she's just a taller version of her old self
like Pearl

Thinking it over, they should just go hog wild with the cameos. Bring back Gumshoe (who is obviously married to Maggie at this point), Franziska, Ema Skye, Ron DeLite, Adrian Andrews...

Older Phoenix looks so cool. I mean, he physically looks the same, but his expression is all serious business now.

People kept making jokes that he looked super angry in this game cuz the first trailers kept showing him all looking pissed.

Apollo justice is great, I think AA5 is the only "eh" one

I would love to have Hakari Mikagami and Yumihiko Ichiyanagi (Justine Courtney and Sebastian Debeste) from AAI2, but I know it won't happen because that game wasn't officially released in the West. So either Franziska and/or Gumshoe would be great.

I wonder what will be the thread connecting every case in this game, as has been custom since the new team started with AAI back in 2009. Will they finally close the loose threads from AA4 and AA5, closing a new trilogy?

Hating Maya?

What is wrong with some of you people, sheeessshhh.

Also channeling, when done correctly, can be incredible. Have you all forgotten how clever the last case of the DS trilogy was? That shit was really awesome.

From the looks of it, it seems like there's going to be two different plots going on; one with Wright and Maya at Kurain village, the other with Apollo and Athena back home.

My only wish is that they don't drop the ball with Apollo. He was a straight up badass in AA5.

I'm kind of bummed Athena isn't there, but it's understandable.

I hope we see some interactions between Maya and Apollo/Athena. The game takes place in two different countries, but I suspect everything will come together at the end.

I don't really need to see Gumshoe back personally at this point, but maaaaan do I wanna see him and Maggey's wedding photo. Where everything is on fire and there's a chalk outline of a murder victim by their feet.

Feels like the promo art is still missing people. Wonder who else will fit in there.

There'll certainly be additional returning character reveals later, but I wouldn't count on that promo image being updated again, lest it really becomes too cluttered.

Keeping with the whole three main characters and the prosecutor JP boxart.

Poor Leifa not important enough to be on the box art. Although this time there seem to be many important characters, so it's just natural you can't fit them all.

I hope they create a poster similar to the one AA5 had:


I think Phoenix, Apollo, Athena, Maya, Leifa and Nayuta could all be there.
