The fourth episode ofPhoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Dual Destiniesdeals heavily with Apollo’s backstory and the unfortunate death of his childhood friend, Clay Terran. There’s a bit of a format switchup, too - instead of beginning with an investigation that leads into a trial, you get thrown into the courtroom.

This case is an interesting one, as you already kinda know how it’ll end - it’s a prelude to the first case of the game, which served as a tutorial all those hours ago. As ever, we’ll present all the choices you’ll need to make in a spoiler-free manner.
