Aside from the bonuses this game has, Capcom updated their Ace Attorney 5 website, revealing new info about a new character named Jin Yugami, a prosecutor who is currently serving his jail sentence for murder.


The public prosecutor's office has nominated him to stand in court. Due to his controversial position, he causes trouble in the court, which has made him known as the "disfigurement of the legal world".

Yugami specializes in courtroom tactics that involve psychology. He uses his sharp eyes to read the thoughts of others and plays mind games by speaking in a calm manner for a moment and then suddenly switching to a much more violent tone.

Ace Attorney 5 will be released for the Nintendo 3DS this July 25.
