Fans assumed that the reason why Ace Attorney Investigations 2 never had an official release is because of the poor performance of the first one. Series producer Motohide Eshiro clarified this notion.
He revealed at this year's E3 that the localization for the said game was held up due to scheduling. "Also, the staff for Ace Attorney Investigations 2—after they finished developing the game, they were disbanded and went to different teams, so they weren't in a position to localize."
Kotaku asked of a possibility of seeing the game in any form in the future. Eshiro replied that he can't make any promises about it.
