A parvenu Venturebeat report claims that Ubisoft ran a test academic session with consumers in the weeks before E3 2021, which ran from 12-15 June. Players reportedly tested the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake, "and something that had the appearance of a new Splinter Cell paradigm."

Details are scarce, as testers are not said to have spent lengthy with the project, which was presented as "a vertical slice that was just a basic tutorial section." Venturebeat does state, however, that "this version of the game combined familiar Splinter Cell actions with elements of the 2016 Hitman reboot."

It's critical to preeminence that this isn't necessarily the same project said to suffer been recently greenlit past Ubisoft (see original story, below).

According to VGC, the new project "has been put into production Eastern Samoa a means of victorious back fans frustrated by recent efforts to revivif the franchise" which adage Sam Fisher head to VR and mobile platforms.

Information technology's not currently known which studios are running happening the project, but VGC suggests that Ubisoft Montreal - one of the companion's most striking developers - is not superior the project. The biz is said to be in the "early form of product," but on that point is "a belittled chance" that information technology could be declared during 2022.

Fans WHO have been waiting since then for Fisher's return had to contend with a Splinter Cell game announced exclusively for Oculus VR back in September 2020. Over the past a few age, the franchise has on the side reared its head on a handful of occasions, with Ubisoft discussing its wariness of the pressure of creating a new Sliver Cell game, and approximately of its lead developers duping U.S.A into believing they were working on the game.

Last summer, Fisher cat's Italian part actor appeared to confirm that a gritty had been in development for an announcement this class, just that doesn't appear to cable up with this untested cover. Evening if Ubisoft has presumption the dealership the K light, yet, don't expect to see it for a while, if at all - a game in the embryonic stages of development could still be several years away, and it's very viable for unannounced projects to ne'er see the light of day.
