Tenchu Developer is Working on an RPG for the 3DS
Posted by Trevor Chan
Everything's rather stealthlike at the moment
Japanese developer Acquire is keeping itself busy with a plethora of unannounced titles that are underway across the majority of current platforms. Although nothing seems to be in the works for the Wii or the DS, a PDF file containing corporate information that was shared at the Game Developers Conference this year reveals that something is cooking on the 3DS.
The studio behind Tenchu: Shadow Assassins on the Wii, and the Way of the Samurai series hasn't revealed anything regarding this 3DS title other than it will be a role-playing game.
However, last September's issue of Famitsu listed an Acquire 3DS game entitled Class of Heroes 3Dx3D in the system's release schedule (as translated by AndriaSang). Whether this will be an updated port of an existing Class of Heroes title, a new sequel to the franchise, or a prequel is unclear right now.
Will this unannounced RPG turn out to be Class of Heroes 3Dx3D, or something else? We'll have to wait and see.

I'd like to see a Tenchu Stealth Assassins remake on the 3DS. It was awesome on the PSone.

So is it "Class" or "Clash?"

The RPG series from Acquire is Class of Heroes. Perhaps Love is getting it mixed up with Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes?

@Trevor: Well your spelling is confusing. You say "Clash of Heroes," then "Class of Heroes". Which one is it?

@7 Trevor is saying Class of Heroes (an rpg game for the PSP http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_of_Heroes) is being mixed up with M&M: Clash of Heroes (a puzzle/strategy rpg for the DS).

@9. Sakura_Moonlight2421 - no, the confusion is over a slight spelling mistake TrevorTheChan made in the article, not specifically which game is which, but it's fixed now.
Anyways, I had never heard of Tenchu: Shadow Assassins until I read this article, thanks NL for showing me a potentially awesome game I somehow missed
