Shank series creator Klei Entertainment revealed that its latest project, the side-scrolling action title Mark of the Ninja, will premiere for Xbox Live Arcade on September 7th.

Mark of the Ninja is a stealth game in which players must silently evade the squadrons of enemy guards that fill each level. If evasion isn't an option, you can opt to distract guards using diversionary tactics...and then you can just straight-up murder them. That also works.

If the wait is too much to bear, you can hone your ninja skills (?) in the meantime by checking out Klei's text adventure adaptation of the game.
