The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles

Publisher: CAPCOM Co., Ltd.

Game Information

Immerse yourself in a dramatic yet charming and witty world of evidence-gathering, deduction and courtroom battles with this double-pack of the adventures of rookie lawyer Ryunosuke.

Set in late 19th century Japan and England, each title features five murder-mystery episodes filled with all the drama, laughs, twists, and “turnabouts” you’ve come to expect from the legally labyrinthine legacy of Ace Attorney. Join Ryunosuke Naruhodo, ancestor of series mainstay Phoenix Wright, as he attempts to uncover the secrets behind an international criminal conspiracy and solve a hauntingly baffling cold case, while tackling a series of tricky trials along the way. Dozens of hours of attorney action awaits you!

In the course of each case, you’ll speak to witnesses, examine evidence and clues, and attempt to deduce the dastardly intent behind the crime before proceeding to the courtroom. In court, you will hear testimonies, cross-examine witnesses, and present evidence. And of course, it wouldn’t be an Ace Attorney game if you couldn’t shout “OBJECTION!” when you know you’ve got the facts and evidence needed to contradict the prosecution’s claims and prove your client’s innocence.

The game includes a convenient assistance feature in case you hit a dead end in your investigation, so even if this is your first Ace Attorney game, you can get into your amateur sleuthing adventures with ease! Will you be able to crack these clever cases? The game is afoot!

NOTE: This game can be played with English audio or with Japanese audio and English subtitles.

Review Note:

The game need a few tweaks to be fully playable on Crossover. Firstly, you have to patch in Gstreamer via CXPatcher to fix videos not playing. Secondly, you need to apply something called dgs_hackfix to enable more resolutions if you're on a 16:10 screen ratio. Was able to comfortably play at 60fps at 1600p for the first trial.

Slight drop in framerate from time to time, but almost nothing. Using 60fps hack + name patch.
