Considering the evidence, though, Ubisoft has been keen to keep the franchise in the minds of players. Splinter Cell‘s disappearance and Ubisoft dragging it out for various other games has been frustrating. Ironside reprised his role in Wildlands, and is still working as an actor today. However, Ironside later revealed in a Ghost Recon: Wildlands interview that he was battling cancer around that time. In many modern games, voice actors get fitted in motion-capture suits, and that wouldn’t work with the older actor. Ubisoft’s reasoning at the time was that Ironside couldn’t do the acrobatics needed for the role. Blacklist was the first in the series to not have Sam Fisher voiced by Canadian actor Michael Ironside. It’d be interesting to see how a new Splinter Cell game plays out. The only bit of juicy info that got squeezed from the unknown sources is that the game is being made, and the French developer may give us a peak next year.
Nor do we yet know what the game will be about, if it will still star Sam Fisher, or if it’s a sequel or prequel. We don’t know which Ubisoft studio may be spearheading the project. The outlet’s sources didn’t have a lot of detail, however. That might change soon, however, as VGC reports that Ubisoft has greenlit a new Splinter Cell game.Īccording to their sources, the next iteration of the franchise is early in development. Sam Fisher has shown up in Rainbow Six Siege and Ghost Recon, but not in any of his own games. Since then, Ubisoft has attempted to placate folks with half-hearted cameos of its grumpy protagonist, as well as nods to the popular stealth franchise. Fans didn’t know it then, but it marked the last time a mainline Splinter Cell game would be released for a long, long time. It’s been more than eight years since the last Splinter Cell game.
