The Great Ace Attorney games send you a century back in time to debate crimes in historic fashion long before the days of your usual finger-pointing objection-haver. “Join Phoenix’s Wright’s ancestor, Ryunosuke Naruhodo, as he takes his first incredibly nervous steps into a courtroom in Meiji era Japan to defend his very first client: himself,” Capcom say.

Outside the courtroom, you’ll have your usual Ace Attorney activities like examining crime scenes. Given the time period and location, you’ll even get a hand from that deerstalker-wearing investigator of old. Yup, the name we all definitely know: Herlock Sholmes.
The Chronicles release also adds a few new features to both games. A “story mode” option will let you sit back and have the puzzles solve themselves if you just like to witness the drama. English audio will be available as well, though you can switch back to the original Japanese if you prefer. Capcom have outlined a few other goodies as well like new costumes and some art director commentary. You can study up on the rest of the facts in Capcom’sannouncement post.

The Great Ace Attorney Collection will be available on Steam when it launches on July 27th, though it doesn’t have a store page up over there just yet.
