Translations of this week’s Famitsu article on The Great Ace Attorney have already come in. Read on below for all of the latest details.

– Called “The Adventure of the Speeding Locked Room”
– Focuses on a murder that took place in a horse-drawn carriage
– Ryuunosuke is drawn into the case upon arriving in London when he’s summoned by the Chief Justice, Hurt Vortex
– Hurt Vortex: strict adherer to science and a man who focuses on time above all else
– Vortex assigns Ryuunosuke to take on the case of a man nobody else will defend
– Vortex mentions that it’s a “simple case”, but there’s a mountain of evidence against the man and a severe penalty if he’s found guilty
– Cosney Megendal is the one on trial
– Cosney Megendal: English gentleman well-known around town for his almost uncannily good disposition
– Megendal is well-liked, though nobody will take on his defense
– This is because legendary prosecutor Barok van Zieks is handling the case
– Ryuunosuke gets dropped into court with hardly any time to prepare
– Baro is a master at presenting evidence at just the right moment to leave an impression on the jury
– New witness: Gina Lestrade
– Gina: a young pickpocket who lives amongst the orphans of London’s East End
– Gina witnessed the case while she was “working”
– As the case develops and even the carriage itself is brought into court, things take a turn for the unexpected when a fire breaks out in the courtroom

Along with the new details regarding The Great Ace Attorney, there’s another live stream recording to watch as well. We’ve attached it below.
