A few days ago we brought you the exciting news that Phoenix Wright would be returning in Ace Attorney 5, but were unable to confirm that the game would be making its way to the west.
We can now happily report that fresh evidence has come to light and a western release of the game is very much on the cards - and that's no idle speculation, but straight from the mouth of a Capcom representative.
"Capcom is planning to release Gyakuten Saiban 5 (Ace Attorney 5) in the West," is the official line according to Kotaku. "We'll have more news soon."

YES! YES! YES!
Don't screw this up, Capcom.
If it does come over here.
Day one.
Good! Now get Ace Attorney Investigations 2 and Layton vs. Ace Attorney out here, too!
Great!
But... Wouldn't it be sooo funny if they said "Fans failed to show interest" in the last moment?
@Morphtroid That would be cruel, not funny.And I think the AA fanbase in the USA would raze Capcom's US HQ if that did happen.

Sorry, I just had to.
Too bad many gamers are boycotting ALL of Capcom's products... Boycotting until something good comes along like this isn't really a boycott at all.
Do you think I would have to play Apollo Justice to like this one?
finally a good news for nintendo.
this series is amazing. it really surprised me when they appeared on shelves, i didnt expected that.
everyone should try at least the frist title on DS.
Well this will be nice when it finally gets here. Though I hope they don't pull one over us like the Edgeworth one.
Brilliant,when do we get it?
I hope we get it this year.
Great! I've always wanted to try a game in the series.
@Emaan: My suggestion is start with the first one either on the GBA, DS or Wiiware. To get the full enjoyment and understand the AA series you should start with the first one and go in order.
No objections here.
Hopefully this also means good news for a Eustralican release of Layton vs. Wright. And maybe even Investigations 2.
Here's hoping they mean the 3DS version and not decide to only sell it on iOS
@Tasuki The first one is cheap on DS, too. It's also on iOS, but the current version is less than ideal. There is another version coming that'll be even better, however.
The story may be some time after Apollo Justice (because if any body completed that game will know that Phoenix said that he would try to get his attorney badge back). But anyway, I like to see Phoenix back in the Ace Attorney games after several games about Edgeworth.
No objection here! HOWEVER...
Jack McCoy for Ace Attorney 5!!!!! Make it happen, Capcom!
Why can't this be like this for some of their other games...coughmonsterhuntercough
Make it happen Capcom. Bring Miles Edgeworth 2 while you're at it.
This is awesome, but I still want to play AAI2 (not enough subbed Youtube videos)!
Oh, what a beautiful morning, oh, what a beautiful day! I got a beautiful feeling, everything's going my way!
Now it's time to localize Ace Attorney VS Professor Layton....
I'm so excited!!!! Can't wait for this game, I'm so glad there's no more Apollo that game was the biggest abortion ever.
Thank goodness! Hopefully it sells well enough to warrant the localization of AAI2.
So, just so I'm not confused, We get AA5 with Phoenix, but no AAI2 or AAI3?
I've seen that guy in tons of avatars but I didn't actually know where he was from until now.
