Original article: A decade later, Ubisoft has finally greenlit a new Splinter Cell, sources claim
The last mainline Splinter Cell game was 2013's Blacklist. The series protagonist, Sam Fisher, has appeared here and there in other Ubisoft games since, but has not had his own full game since then. This is likely very welcome news to an admittedly increasingly small group of fans.
I am very torn by this news, but when I started writing out my thoughts they became very long and decided that would be best served by a post other than the OP of a news thread lol
That’s according to development sources, who told us that the title has been put into production as a means of winning back fans frustrated by recent efforts to revive the franchise in the mobile and VR spaces.
It’s not clear which studios are working on the project, though two people with knowledge of Ubisoft’s plans suggested the new Splinter Cell was being led by a studio outside of its traditional Montreal base.
The title is in an early phase of production, the sources said, but there’s a small chance it could be announced next year.
