He hasn't had a new game in 10 years and Capcom sees the future of the company in this franchise

In the latest investors’ meeting, Capcom revealed, in addition to an excellent economic and fiscal performance, what their future plans are. Aiming to take care of a specific series of brands to grow in the future, they have decided to focus on seven of them. Six are not very surprising, as there had already been announcements about them, namely Devil May Cry, Mega Man, Dead Rising, Onimusha, Dragon’s Dogma, and Okami. But the surprising part is that the seventh is Ace Attorney. Ace Attorney is a series of visual novels that began its publication on Game Boy Advance in 2001 […]

In the latest investors’ meeting, Capcom revealed, in addition to an excellent economic and fiscal performance, what their future plans are. Looking to nurture a specific series of franchises to grow in the future, they have decided to focus on seven of them. Six are not surprising, as there had already been announcements about them, namely Devil May Cry, Mega Man, Dead Rising, Onimusha, Dragon’s Dogma, and Okami. But the surprising part is that the seventh is Ace Attorney.

Ace Attorney the future of Capcom

Ace Attorney is a series of visual novels that began its publication on Game Boy Advance in 2001 and has had six main games, as well as multiple spinoffs, based on acting in trials, searching for clues, and confronting rival prosecutors. The franchise, tremendously popular both in the West and in Japan, has not had a new installment since Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney − Spirit of Justice, released in 2016 and which never came out in Europe.

That doesn’t mean the franchise has been forgotten. The last game in the franchise, a spinoff, was The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve, which never left Japan, in 2017. And since then they have released numerous ports and remasters, in addition to huge amounts of merchandise, with great success.

With 2026 marking ten years since the last main title of the franchise, many fans are hoping that Capcom will announce Phoenix Wright 7 this year. Something that seems to be bolstered by the fact that it is one of the central pieces of Capcom’s strategy, which will focus, in their own words, on “new IPs, ports, remakes, remasters, and new installments of well-known franchises”. So there is hope for a new Phoenix Wright. Although it may not seem like it.

The creators of the Oblivion mod for Skyrim are thrilled with the announcement of its remaster

The highly anticipated total conversion project known as Skyblivion, which aims to recreate The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion using the Skyrim engine, has been in development since 2012 and is expected to be released in 2025. The news comes in a year that will also see the official remastering of Oblivion, recently announced and expected for the same period, which poses an interesting dilemma for fans of the saga.

The highly anticipated total conversion project known as Skyblivion, which aims to recreate The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion using the Skyrim engine, has been in development since 2012 and is expected to be released in 2025. The novelty arises in a year that will also see the official remastering of Oblivion, recently announced and expected for the same period, which presents an interesting dilemma for fans of the saga.

They see it as ideal for the players, not a problem for them

Rebelzize, the leader of the Skyblivion project, has commented that the simultaneous arrival of the official remaster and the mod can be beneficial for users, as it offers more content from the beloved title of 2006. In a recent post, he stated that this phenomenon represents a victory for fans, who will be able to enjoy two different approaches to the same game during 2025. “It has always been a passion project and will continue to be until the end,” he added.

Unlike the official remaster, which may include significant changes to the visual aspect and combat mechanics, Skyblivion promises to stay true to the original essence of Oblivion while adding fresh content. This mod will include new quests, monsters, expanded cities, new music, and a reinvented lockpicking minigame, as well as an improved user interface. The stylistic differences, such as the more desaturated approach of the official remaster, suggest that both experiences will be unique and complementary.

Players will face a relevant choice between the officially remastered content and the Skyblivion modification, each offering a distinct experience. The wait for the next installment of the saga, The Elder Scrolls VI, continues; however, the arrival of these two projects in 2025 promises to satisfy fans of the franchise in an era marked by nostalgia and innovation.
