Characters

Here’s details and artworks for the new and returning characters:

Mikotoba Susato (voiced by Kana Hanazawa): due to a certain case, she travels back to Japan, but she can’t help but worry about Ryuunosuke. That’s what the scene from the first trailer, with Susato putting a flower on a grave, is about. Returning character from Dai Gyakuten Saiban: Naruhodou Ryuunosuke no Bouken

Iris Watson (voiced by Misaki Kuno): a genius child, who is only 10 year but also has a PhD and has even written a book. Returning character from Dai Gyakuten Saiban: Naruhodou Ryuunosuke no Bouken

Barok van Zieks (voiced by Kenjiro Tsuda): a legendary prosecutor, known as the Shinigami (God of Death). When he stands in court, none of the accused has ever escaped death (hence his nickname), even innocent people. He seems to have irrational hatred of Japanese people. Returning character from Dai Gyakuten Saiban: Naruhodou Ryuunosuke no Bouken

Tobias Greggson: a member of the London Metropolitan Police Department, and more precisely the homicide department. He always conduct his investigations extremely seriously, but never without some good ol’ fish & chips. He appears in a pretty famous book (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes), which is something he’s really proud of (though he does not let that gets to his head). A returning character from Dai Gyakuten Saiban: Naruhodou Ryuunosuke no Bouken

Decargo Mieterman: a mysterious man that Naruhodou Ryuunosuke spotted during the investigation. He was trying to peek inside the apartment where the murder took place. A new character.

The video above shows off the capture Capcom did for the tap-dancing animation that appears in the game.
