Capcom has handed over cash for Tenchu developer K2 studios, which created the most recent, strictly average Xbox 360 offering Tenchu Z as well as Valhalla Knights.
The ninja series probably has less to do with the purchase though than K2's outsourced work on Lost Planet. The acquisition was made via an exchange of stock which is expected to be completed on May 1.
Capcom says the move is aimed at making the company's "game development activities more efficient and speedy," and that it will also help increase the value of the group as a whole.
Hopefully we'll be seeing an awesome Tenchu game down the line then, but more likely the deal will simply result in K2 doing the dull technical work for future Capcom releases.
