Automatic note by LuaCat Games, built from what we know about the coverage (who reported it, how many sites, the story’s history) — not a translation or copy of the source.

The report is Eurogamer's, on its own for now. They usually verify before posting. The previous Professor Layton trailer came out 3 days before this story. In the 30 days before this one, 5 other Professor Layton stories ran here.

Bottom line: The core of it should hold; if another outlet tells it differently, that shows up below.
