Tenchu Z's only flaw is lack of a good narrative, but in terms of gameplay it plays out more faithful as a Tenchu entry than whatever came out for the wii. That said I do want to see another Tenchu game some day that has both a good story and gameplay, not just one.
Now I understand the storyline of Tenchu,it was Tenchu 2 Birth of Stealth Assassins,Tenchu 1 Stealth Assassins,Tenchu Fatal Shadows and now this,it make sense

This is all true. And I would have given anything to grow up with online Tenchu. I'm content knowing I'm the champion of my house when it comes to multiplayer versus.
fromsoftware souls director murdered the franchise with souls shit games making games just to be hard and thats it i miss tenchu they should have continued with tenchu as well and sekiro is good but to me its not as good as tenchu
From wikia : Tenchu: Return from Darkness (天誅 参 〜回帰ノ章〜 - Tenchū San: Kaiki no Shō) is an expanded release of Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven for the Xbox. Upgrades include graphical improvements, 2 new multiplayer characters, 2 new single player missions, extra special moves, and the ability to go online with the versus and co-op multiplayer modes, I only played the PS2 version :/
31:03 Souls are talking about Rikumaru after Mei oh incident, 1:46:48 well well Dr Kimaira appeared with his wooden puppet, Rikimaru has to face it inorder to recuse Princess Kiku, 2:18:48 oh look who's decided to show up, it's Mifuyu the lady with twin blades, She's going down 👎 , 6:45:21 Tesshu disable mifuyu, 6:24:30 Tesshu encounter Rikimaru
@@maxxvii2037 Fatal Shadows is cool but my fav character is Rikimaru and he doesn't appear in Fatal Shadows :,( It'd be beautiful to do double sealth kills with him in fatal shadows, but there's Rin instead of Rikimaru.
@@LuisFernandez-tp7jb yeah because it takes place after the first Tenchu, and before tenchu wrath of heaven. When Riki is gone missing (he got isekaied to modern world) The timeline is kinda weird that way.
@@verseone1111 I know, btw i have a doubt. When Rikimaru saves Kiku and Ayame in Tenchu 1 from the falling rock, he gives the izayoi to Ayame and then she escapes with the princess and the sword. So Rikimaru enters the portal. When he appears through the portal he still has the sword. But, how? :v
@@LuisFernandez-tp7jb that's just K2 being not consistent I think, I dunno lol xD The shadow is obviously not using the Izayoi. I can understand if he got a weapon from the jutsu itself. Or just simply pick it up randomly in the way home, But the real one is basically weaponless when he gets transferred. The only thing I can think of is.. he use a substitute weapon, although I don't know how the f he finds that sword in the frickin portal 😂😂 but one thing for sure, Izayoi is still standing up the hill, until the real rikimaru is back and fight onikage in that cave.
I can’t believe how much the PS2 version of Tenchu, “Wrath of Heaven” was missing. I can’t remember what exactly, as it’s been so long since I did play. But I know there is a lot more content in “Return from Darkness”.
2:33:41 Rikimaru never fall for trick like that if someone disguised as Ayame,he fought it and impostor revealed and after that he bit his own tongue like oof and Tatsumaru mentioned Master Shiunsai,the one from Tenchu 2 2:52:05 , 2:35:03 Ganda is going to assist Kagura
hate the cemetary level it creeps me out, and unless your really good with Ayame, you basically have to play through that stage twice, to get the yoto swords then replay to get the skill as while it's doable with out them, you have to be extremely skilled to pull it off.
the time i played this, i was just a kid and didnt know english, im seeing now that youre not suposed to kill anybody in the second level, lol, i just killed everybody all the times
Golden age of gaming days original Xbox was the best system I played when it first came out. I remember playing the demo of this one of my game discs and I want to get a copy of this game
Ok. So now let me try to understand this...🤔 How could Kagura take control to the tall and strong headless samurai in Ayame's mission in the cemetery? They honestly should have written and applied that into the plot of all of these versions of this game (Tenchu Wrath of Heaven, Tenchu Return from Darkness and Tenchu San portable)...
Either a Tenchu Remake / Remaster or a continuation of the Story which should be played from 5 different points of view: Rikimaru and Ayame as the heroes, then Tesshu and Tatsumaru as Antiheroes and Onikage as the Villain. I would love Onikage's Storyarc to resurrect Tenrai AND Mei'Oh!, while Rikimaru, Ayame and Tesshu take care of other things in Lord Gohda's Lands. The true UNSUNG HERO should be Tatsumaru... because this guy deserves more love and a redemption Storyarc. I did not mention Rin, because I wouldn't know what to do with her :P Rikimaru is troubled by guilt for killing Princess Kiku finds some kind of solace in doing "Work" for Lord Gohda (Instert Missions here) Ayame, now possessed by Onikage hunts Rikimaru down and fights him whenever the opportunity is there, but she needs to be freed from Onikage's influence, in order to make her become normal again. Doctor Tesshu Fujjioka, now being the only surviving Member who once worked for "Muzen" leaves the Lands of Gohda and settles in one of the neighboring States, working as a Doctor, but his past would catch up to him. Tatsumaru, the tragic hero is resurrected again after Onikage's Storyarc and successful resummoning of Tenrai and Mei'oh. This time Tatsumaru seeks an Exorcist in order to free him from Tenrai's / Mei'Oh's evil influence and afterwards he seeks redemption. Onikage the evil Villain and servant of Lord Mei'Oh, loses his Control over Ayame and begins to study dark rituals in order to summon Tenrai and Mei'Oh back in the World of the Living (insert Missions here) THIS would be my Tenchu Ultimate.
I downloaded this game for my Xbox 360 because of the extra missions it has. It works fine but the problem is the cutscenes don't show well and it's only a black screen with the dialogue and text. I don't know what to do
Wrath of Heaven came out first on the PS2, Return from Darkness was released later for the xbox with additonal stages and other upgrades such as some cutscenes being animated rather than still frame cutscenes. the first Onimusha game got similar treatment by releasing genma onimush later on for the xbox.
Anyway I do like this particular significant build of Tenchu Wrath of Heaven. And I'm even glad K2 Co., Ltd did replaced the title from Wrath of Heaven to Return from Darkness which is great with this significant build for a change!!😃
@@panagiotisgoulas8539 And a very different ending for Ayame (talking about character development)... im still not sure about it. In this one, it makes more sense but I´ll miss the last conversation between she and Tatsu, his help against Tenrai and the ambiguity of his dead.
so Activision was too lazy to create a tenchu for themselves and they went with from software to do it, because watching all the games in the tenchu series is more than obvious that sekiro is a tenchu
Activision was just the publusher, fromsoftware was always the developer for tenchu, sekiro started to be developed as a tenchu game but it became its own thing.
@@elkmeatenjoyer3409 FromSoft wasn't always the developer for tenchu, Acquire did the first two games and shadow assassins. K2 LLC did wrath, fatal, time and Z while FromSoft did psp ports then shadow assault as their first Tenchu game that isn't a port and instead made and published by themselves.
This tenchu version is better than the ps2 version, unfortunately it was exclusive to this piece of shit console of the time. I would love to play this remaster version on modern console!
The original Xbox wasn't a piece of shit at all. It was the strongest console at the time and always had the better versions of PS2 games. I think maybe you should be on some kind of brain medication.
I like the game, but yeah no questions. I think the enemy NPCs returning to their calm status after their allies have been murdered is kind of ridiculous.
We want tenchu remake
A Tenchu 2 remake would be well worth it.
@@RealBillyFanword yes
Fml 1-3 so need to be remade, they were beautiful games and such a huge part of my childhood
Agree. Or more ninja game
