A classic team-up gets some eye-catching cover art
Not so long ago, we delivered the excellent news that Professor Layton Vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney was coming to Europe this March. We've now been given some compelling additional evidence: the game's box art.
What do you think of this cover? If you're on the fence about making a purchase, will this tip the balance? Let us know your thoughts by leaving a comment below.

Posted 0 seconds ago. After years of looking forward to this game, a cover couldn't change much to my preorder. Still, not bad, and nice news. It makes the release seem closer already.
When will the American release date be revealed?
Excellent that it's finally coming.
It's a relief to see this one coming as physical retail game, since a lot of recent Level 5 and Capcom efforts have been eshop only.
what? no american release date yet?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
No American release date? Oh well. I'll be patient.
I like the box art, can't wait to pick this up!
NOA is worthless when it comes to getting out release dates, keeping said release dates, and just releasing anything for that matter.
That looks awesome! Can't wait to finally play it!
The cover is alright, I'll probably download it anyway. I can't wait, it's going to be epic!
Just be patent Mask0'.... NA release date will come soon...
I love Layton, but could never really get into Ace Attorney. Hmmm, what should I do?
I bet it's going to be released in America in 2015!
Digital only too!
Preordered the game =D Now i just have to wait until 28th March ^^
Well, let's be fair on one point...America doesn't even have Layton 6 quite yet. They might be waiting to announce this until we catch up in that regard...hopefully.
Got this on order. Much hyped for this one.
@Bass_X0
Probably.
Does this game focus more on Prof. Layton or more on Phoenix Wright?
@FishieFish
From what I understand, the investigation portions are similar to Layton games, while the court sessions switch to a style of gameplay similar to Ace Attorney.
Gorgeous.
it was announced in an august direct from last year that it was slated for release early this year in NA.

Wait... box-art? Are they actually giving us a box this time? Holy smokes!
I wonder if this game will be rated T in America? Gosh, UK, you're so lucky you get this first!
Layton confirmed for Super Smash Bros Wii U as if isn't obvious. His hat logo is already an icon for smash LOL
The NA release date is TBA 2014, not 2015!
I smell another Op. Rainfall movement coming along...
@Bass_X0: Yeah, right? I'm still waiting and hoping for a physical copy of Dual Destinies...
I do remember hearing that Nintendo said that PLvs.PW would come out in America on the same day as when it is released in Europe.
@KnightRider666 If the Phoenix Wright collection ever comes to America at retail, maybe they'll add Dual Destinies to the same cartridge?
Literally waiting years for this... out 3 days before my birthday! Can't wait!
@Bass_X0: Wouldn't that be all to perfect? I wouldn't count on it though.
