Tenchu 3 Assassination Attempt?

In an odd circumstance, Acquire Entertainment, creator of the Playstation Tenchu ninja simulation game series, has lost the rights to produce more Tenchu games. K2 LLC will be producing Tenchu 3. While Acquire created the Tenchu franchise, Sony owned the copyright on the series and sold the license to Activision. Acquire Entertainment is currently in negotiations with Activision for development rights to the franchise.
