Gyakuten Saiban 5 was announced by Capcom's president on May 22, 2007 with no further detail.[1] This has been the only official and direct confirmation of the existence of Gyakuten Saiban 5.
On February 1, 2008, Siliconera posted an interview with product marketing manager for Ace Attorney, Colin Ferris, concerning Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, which at the time was weeks away from its North American release. Ferris gave no concrete information on Gyakuten Saiban 5 when asked about it, only assuring that the developers had "some neat new ideas for it."[2]
On June 30, 2008, at Capcom's first annual Captivate convention, Croik (of Court Records fame) asked various Capcom employees about info on a fifth Ace Attorney game. The employees gave little concrete information but quashed rumors from Chinese fansites that Shu Takumi had left Capcom and that the game had been canceled.[3]
An interview with Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth producer Motohide Eshiro revealed that Eshiro had contacted core series producer Minae Matsukawa offering his services in developing Gyakuten Saiban 5.[4][5]
