Both Phoenix Wright and Story of Seasons are getting VR ports


Announced today during the Meta Connect, two pretty popular franchises are making the leap to VR: Story of Seasons and Phoenix Wright. More specifically, one of the more recent Story of Seasons games in A Wonderful Life, the remake of the GameCube and PS2 classic, and Dual Destinies, the first 3D Phoenix Wright game that originally launched on 3DS. Both got a fairly short trailer showing off new features, with Phoenix Wright allowing you to explore crime scenes much more vividly, and actually swing your arm forwards to present evidence to really get into it.

Story of Seasons by comparison looks a little more stripped back, reworking much of the game's UI to be VR friendly and turning the world into a series of smaller dioramas that you can look down upon and tweak with your hands.

At the time of writing, both titles are only announced for Meta platforms, with Phoenix Wright set to launch in 2027, and Story of Seasons not having a release date. With some luck we'll see these releases on other platforms in time.

The first and only M-rated Ace Attorney. I see it's listed as Teen on the Meta store.

Someone thought the 240p 3DS screen was too visceral and blasphemous for the youth but strapping this to your face in 4K? that's fine :D

This really feels like it needs voice acting reminds me of when Pokémon started having those fully 3D motion-captured cutscenes with lips flapping and no voices coming out especially in the Switch era.
