Tenchu 4: The Stealth Action Genre Makes an Unseen Comeback
The resurrection of the once-glorious action series Tenchu appears to be for real, thanks to the upcoming release of Tenchu 4 on the Wii.
The stealth action series had its innovative roots on the Playstation platform in the late ‘90s, but began to flounder not too long after developer Acquire, a master of ninja/samurai combat game play, was not asked to develop the sequels Tenchu: Return from Darkness and Tenchu Z, which tanked on the original Xbox and Xbox 360, respectively.
Now, with the return of Acquire, hopes are high for the new game in this forgotten series that helped define the modern stealth action genre, preceding even Metal Gear Solid.
