The Long Wait For Ace Attorney 7 Continues, As 'Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies VR' Announced

The remake rebuilds the 2013 courtroom adventure for first-person VR and will be exclusive to the Meta Horizon Store in 2027.

  • Capcom unveiled Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Dual Destinies VR at Meta Connect, exclusive to Meta Quest headsets launching in 2027. The title is a from-the-ground-up remake of the 2013 courtroom drama.
  • Since Spirit of Justice debuted in 2016, the series has remained trapped in remakes and rereleases. Fans are still waiting for news regarding a potential AA7, fueling frustration over this announcement.
  • This virtual reality edition lets players 'walk through' 3D crime scenes to examine evidence from every angle. Users employ hand tracking to call out witnesses, placing them directly into the roles of Phoenix Wright or Apollo Justice.
  • Disbelief dominates online discourse, as the official YouTube trailer has comments disabled. One fan remarked, 'I saw it earlier today memed somewhere, but I just didn't believe it,' while another claimed, 'Bro it's actually over no joke, dead franchise.'
  • While Dual Destinies originally launched on Nintendo hardware in 2013, this release marks the first virtual reality title for the franchise. Fans must wait until 2027 to play the game, as the wait for a brand-new entry continues.
