Third Ace Attorney musical tells Edgeworth's story in January

While we wait in vain for news of an Ace Attorney Investigations 2 localization (we know, it's not going to happen), Japanese audiences can settle in for some new Edgeworth material, in the form of a third musical by the Takarazuka Revue.

Starting in January 13, the group's "Cosmos Troupe" will present "Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth: Ace Attorney 3," a new play starring Hiro Yumi as Miles Edgeworth. Yumi previously played Edgeworth in the previous two Phoenix Wright-focused productions.

The play fits with Capcom's "Single Content Multiple Usage" strategy. We hope to see this content used in games again soon. Ace Attorney 5 was announced earlier this year and hasn't been shown yet, and Level-5 is working on a Professor Layton/Ace Attorney crossover game.
