Step-by-step guide for The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve

This guide will (hopefully) include every step needed to complete the second game!

Intro

This guide is a full step-by-step guide for the second game in the collection. I avoided spoiling as much as possible, but obviously, if you skip most of the dialogue, this may spoil some elements of the game. Please rate up/favorite the guide if it helped you!

I also made a full achievement guide for the game, if that’s what you’re looking for!

[AFAK]

thanks

[ヌエ .｡.:*☆]

Thank you very much for this guide! It was extremely helpful.

[My1]

what's the final code in the JP ver btw? kinda curious, as it for obvious reasons cannot be the same

[john fortnite]

Yall it says option 2 and has for a week unless I’m trippin

[ScarletCelestial]

Just got to this bit on PC, Lord Stronghart was Option 2 (Final Chapter, Part 3)

[Jeff]

Final Chapter
Trial part 3
CHOOSE > Option 1, Lord Stronghart

At least on the switch version, "Lord Stongheart" was option 2

[N Harmonia]

CHOOSE > Option 1, Lord Stronghart

Just above; I believe Stronghart's actually Option 2, with van Zieks being 1.

[N Harmonia]

PRESS > Juror 1
PRESENT > Soseki Natsume

You're missing something between these two; "SELECT > third option, "I have supporting testimony"".

[N Harmonia]

EXAMINE > Soseki Natsume Article
POINT > Back of the paper

The paper isn't a 3D object at first; it seems you need to skip past all the testimony and have Susato and Yujin chat to allow proper examination of the paper.
At least, that's what worked for me.

[john fortnite]

Yep! That’s noted in my other guide for this game, which is a full achievement guide
