Over the past few years, I’ve been taking a close look at Attorney of the Arcane and reviewing feedback from people who played it. Iteration is a large part of game development, and I felt that there was a lot of room for improvement in what I released in 2023. With that, I'd like to announce that Attorney of the Arcane will be receiving a massive content update on January 5, 2026. This update will be free for everyone who already owns the game.
I've been working to redevelop the game to polish out some of it's rougher edges. While I feel that I haven't solved every issue raised, the upcoming update will be a drastic improvement over what is currently available. I hope you're all looking forward to it!
Here are just some of the additional elements being added.
Additional character scenes
Revisions to some of the older character sprites
Rewritten dialogue
Restructuring of certain cases and story beats
A complete overhaul of the mystery in Case 3
Better color balance and effects for characters and backgrounds
Better designed UI
The ability to upload and use fan translations on the Steam Workshop
New Objection Animations
The old version of the game (ie. what is currently playable at this date) will be available for free as an alternate application.
