Capcom is done with The Great Ace Attorney’s development
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
Capcom’s Shu Takumi has been tweeting up a storm as of late. Takumi recently shared a status update on The Great Ace Attorney’s development, among other things.
One of the most notable pieces of information Takumi shared is that The Great Attorney’s development is complete. In Japan, the game launches on July 9.
Other tidbits Takumi shared:
– Takumi still finds the role of director difficult
– This is because while it’s “his” game, the members of his team are doing most of the work
– It’s hard to ask other people to correct their work to fit his own vision
– Luckily he has a great team and they can all look back at the project with smiles on their faces (despite the “battles” on the dev floor)
– 15 years ago, the Ace Attorney team started out with 7 people, but now it’s around 60
Last but not least, The Great Ace Attorney will be featured on Capcom TV again on June 17. It’s a possibility that Famitsu will have an article during the same week as well.
