Tecmo taps Grasshopper for Fatal Frame Wii


The latest in Tecmo's atmospheric, at times disturbing survival horror series Fatal Frame could have you fighting off ghostly haunts with the Wii remote, with Killer 7 and No More Heroes developer Grasshopper Manufacture tapped to produce the next game in the series for the Wii.

According to a report out of last week's TGS, Suda 51's studio will begin work on the as yet untitled Fatal Frame game after development wraps on the ultra-violent No More Heroes, which Ubisoft will publish in the US in February. Like Fatal Frame, No More Heroes is also for the Wii, underscoring Grasshopper's apparent enthusiasm for Nintendo's unconventional console.

It will be interesting to see how Fatal Frame's landmark photography-based gameplay will map to the Wii's motion sensitive controls, though if past iterations are any indication, we may just drop the remote altogether and go hide in the closet.
