Tenchu IV publisher is none other than....Ubisoft? (Tenchu IV details)

Tenchu IV was announced a few days ago for the Wii, but there has been a new revelation about the game's publisher. Ubisoft seems to be handling the publishing process which is quite a surprise. The company has been putting a great emphasis on casual titles for the Wii and is the notorious creator of Dogz, Horsez, and every other game ending in a 'z.' Ubisoft will most likely not be able to interfere with the development title, thus Tenchu fans should be rest assured that Tenchu IV will turn into Petz: Tenchu IV.

Full details about Tenchu IV below:

- Main characters: Rikimaru and Ayame
- Story: set one year after the riots caused by the Witchcraft Lord "Tenrai". There are still some evil people behind the scenes that are causing trouble, and gaining in power. There was also an incident involving the kidnapping of princess Kiku (Lord Gouda Matsunoshin's daughter). Rikimaru and Ayame must find out what is going on with these happenings.
- "Stealth Ninja Action Game"
- developers are saying that this could be the 'epitome of the series'
- new character designs
- new actors
- both characters have different fighting styles, and "assassination cutscenes".
- Stealth actions: hide in water, climb on ceilings, sneak around above the ceiling, hide in the dark, hide bodies, hide within caravans to sneak into heavily guarded locations, and more moves completely new to the series
- special move allows you to quickly dispose of a body into water, effectively hiding the corpse
- ninja tools from previous entries return, and have been reworked for Wiimote/Nunchuk control
- www.tenchu.net may be updated on June 7th with info (Tenchu 4, Wii)
