Following a report by Pocket Gamer that Ace Attorney 5 for the Nintendo 3DS is being released in western territories, we decided to write in to Capcom ourselves, in order to confirm the situation.

Brian Keltner, PR Manager at Capcom, confirmed to us:

“Capcom is planning to release Gyakuten Saiban 5 (Ace Attorney 5) in the West. We’ll have more news soon.”

As previously reported, Phoenix Wright will return as the main protagonist in Ace Attorney 5. The game takes place one year after the events of Apollo Justice. You can read more about it here.
