Tenchu 3 at E3

Activision has announced its plans to showcase the latest game in the Tenchu series, Tenchu 3: Wrath of Heaven, at the 2002 E3 next week.

Not a lot of detail on the game is available at this time, but the game will feature 25 missions, improved animation, and the same style of stealth-heavy gameplay seen in the series' previous installments. The game will include Rikimaru and two other playable characters.

Tenchu 3: Wrath of Heaven is scheduled to ship in the fourth quarter of this year. We'll have hands-on impressions of the game next week.
