It’s been awhile since we last hard about Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney. But in a discussion with Ace Attorney creator Shuu Takumi, Ace Attorney movie director Takashi Miike gave a small status update.
Miike said that development is “at its climax” and development is “progressing well”:
“Production on Layton vs Ace Attorney is at its climax. It’s like my entire life is focused on it. While I still can’t say much, it’s progressing well, so please wait a bit more.”
Takumi also spoke about the differences in working on Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney compared to his duties with the Ace Attorney film:
“While [Latyon vs Ace Attorney] is being developed jointly with Level-5, games are my job, so I can’t just leave it to someone else like with the movie.”
If there were to be a sequel to the Ace Attorney movie, it wouldn’t’ just be Ace Attorney 2 converted into a film. Miike would instead prefer to show sides of the story not presented in the games.
Thanks to 4Him for the tip.
