Tenchu Z aka Tenchu Senran is the eighth game in the Tenchu series. It is different from previous games in the series in that the player creates their own ninja characters, then builds up their skills as they play through the game rather than choosing from a small selection of pre-made characters, as they take orders from the series' previous main male character, Rikimaru. It features four-player cooperative play through Xbox Live. Tenchu Z is the largest game in the series to date, containing 50 missions with different difficulty settings and objectives.
The game's character edit features are quite in-depth, allowing you to use gold obtained by doing well in missions both in single player and multiplayer to purchase new aesthetic styles for your ninja, new abilities, items to use during missions, and different special attacks to use in combat, in addition to combo-editing abilities.
In January of 2007 Microsoft announced they would be publishing Tenchu Z in North America.
