At the end of the Ace Attorney 6’s Tokyo Game Show trailer, we got a glimpse of Apollo Justice at the very end. It turns out he’ll have quite a big role in the game. As revealed in this week’s issue of Famitsu, Phoenix Wright and Apollo Justice are featured in Ace Attorney 6 as dual protagonists.
Famitsu also says that the game is set in both Japan and βKurain Kingdom.β Prosecutor Payne (Gaspen Payne) will meet Phoenix here. In Famitsu’s article, it’s mentioned that the country features an undefeated prosecutor as well.
Earlier today we reported on quite a bit of new material regarding Medabots 9, including a new trailer and the opening of the official website. The folks over at Siliconera have translated the character profiles found on the website. Here’s some insight into a couple of the main characters:
Tenma Wakakoma
Tenma the protagonist isnβt too audacious, and he isnβt that experienced when it comes to Medabots, but he gets enrolled into an elite academy, where he finds some unwanted attention. It doesnβt take long for people to notice his abilities, and he joins an βexploration clubβ at the school.
