Tenchu: Stealth Assassins is a stealth game released for the original Playstation, in which the player takes the role of a ninja, progressing through 10 stages set in ancient Japan and accomplishing the tasks therein. [Infos from Wikipedia]
Thanks to Mozgus we are able to see an interesting video from an early prototype of the game, that was found in the Japan-exclusive disc Tenchu: Shinobi Hyakusen. In this old build, it seems that Tenchu was going to be more “futuristic” and the style of the game was very different from the one in the final version.
Thanks a lot to Mozgus for the contribution!

Haha, I was wondering if it was going to make it to the site.

sorry for the delay Mozgus, we have so many updates for U64 that most of them need to wait in queue before being published in the archive, as we try to have max 1 or 2 updates a day, or it would be too chaotic. This one was already “speeded up”, currently there are scheduled U64 updates till May ;) Thanks again for this video! It’s really an interesting piece of gaming-history :)
