In shops and on Nintendo eShop now: Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

Two great minds meet to break their biggest case in Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, out now on Nintendo 3DS family systems! In this brand new adventure, uncover the secret of a mysterious, puzzle-filled city, and defend your clients with all you’ve got in court!

When Espella Cantabella appears at Professor Layton’s London office claiming to be hunted by witches, the professor and his sidekick, Luke Triton, help her escape. Shortly after, Phoenix Wright and Maya Fey visit England, only to be dragged into an odd case involving a girl called Espella, who mistakenly believes she is on trial for witchcraft! After an acquittal, the case is closed but the four heroes suddenly find themselves in the medieval city of Labyrinthia, where they discover Espella is to be tried as a witch!

As both the professor and the attorney, you’ll need your wits about you in order to uncover Labyrinthia’s secrets and the truth of the case. Hit the streets to sniff out clues, question the peculiar townsfolk, and solve dozens of puzzles. The more you explore, the more hint coins you’ll find, which you can use to purchase Hints – they may well save your bacon when it comes to the more devilish brainteasers!

Defend your client in court by spotting contradictions in witness testimonies, present evidence to expose the lies, and overturn the prosecution’s case through irrefutable logic. For the first time in an Ace Attorney game you can cross-examine several witnesses at once, so keep your eyes peeled for contradictions between testimonies – it’s up to you to ensure justice prevails!
