Ryūichi Naruhodō Returns to the Courtroom for the First Time in 8 Years—Experience the Series’ Fifth Installment in VR
This title is a VR adaptation of *Ace Attorney 5*, the fifth installment in the *Ace Attorney* courtroom battle adventure series.
The story begins with Ryuichi Naruhodo, the protagonist of the first game in the series, returning to the courtroom as a lawyer for the first time in eight years. The case begins with a shocking event: the bombing of a courtroom—a place considered sacred to members of the legal profession.In this “Dark Age of Law,” where victory itself has become the goal rather than the truth, he stands up to the system alongside Hoshino Hōsuke and rookie attorney Kizuki Kokone.
Pick up pieces of evidence and use gestures to point out contradictions
For the VR adaptation, this title now supports hand tracking. You can play using simple gestures like pinching and tapping, or opt to use a controller. In the investigation segments, you’ll examine crime scenes recreated in VR from various angles to gather evidence and witness testimonies.
Even in VR, the courtroom battles—where you uncover contradictions between suspicious witnesses’ testimonies and evidence—remain intact. Here, you use gesture controls to uncover the truth. You’ll also be able to experience the series’ signature case-solving systems in VR, such as the “Heart Scope,” which reveals emotional contradictions, and the “Thinking Route,” which leads you to the truth.
Additionally, the English description on the Meta Store page mentions the voice command “Objection!”
