Capcom has announced that The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles has surpassed 500,000 copies sold worldwide. The game is a remaster of Great Ace Attorney: Adventures and Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve that was released on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Two Nintendo 3DS games that released exclusively in Japan.
The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles is also the second collection of Ace Attorney titles to have been released on modern hardware. Capcom released the Ace Attorney Trilogy making up the first three games in the series, back in February of 2019, and as of its last unit sales update, the trilogy has reached 1.4 million copies sold.
Depending on Capcom’s satisfaction with the sales of Great Ace Attorney Chronicles, there is a possibility of another collection, specifically of the Investigations duology. The first entry Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth released back on the Nintendo DS in 2009, but its sequel Ace Attorney Investigations 2, was never localized to the west. There are also three other titles on the 3DS that are only available digitally through the eShop.
500,000 units sold is quite the achievement for a visual novel adventure game. Hopefully, the Ace Attorney series will find continued success as they continue to release quality titles.
