Good news, we finally have news of an infiltration game highly anticipated by fans. Indeed, the Splinter Cell remake has resurfaced.
Splinter Cell is undeniably one of the symbols of the infiltration game. The license has not shown the tip of its nose for some time, but the tide is starting to turn. Indeed, the remake of the first opus was announced with great fanfare and fans are now waiting to find out more. However, we don’t have much to eat, given that the construction site is not very advanced. However, crucial information has been unearthed.
Splinter Cell Remake is hiring
Developed by Ubisoft Toronto, Splinter Cell Remake was revealed in 2022 to mark the 20th anniversary of the franchise. A great gift for early fans. The project is still quite young, and as a result, only concept art of the game is available on the Web. Since then, it has been radio silence. At least, until today. In fact, there are currently 12 job offers on the studio’s website. These are dedicated to the Splinter Cell remake. We find the position of gameplay animator, narrative designer, but also level designer. In short, quite a few important positions in the development of a game, including a technical artistic director.
These job postings lead one to believe that Ubisoft will now step up development on Splinter Cell Remake. On the other hand, you obviously need to be patient. Given the positions sought, we suspect that the project of this complete overhaul will take some time before being concluded. So don’t expect to have a trailer or a release date anytime soon. For some fans, it’s not dramatic, as long as he doesn’t suffer the same fate as one of his colleagues.
The mysterious canceled project
Yes, Splinter Cell Remake was obviously not the only project set up by Ubisoft to give a boost to the license. Last April, a insider revealed the existence of a battle royale called Splinter Cell: Hunters. The TPS required the player to infiltrate an enemy base with a teammate. The goal was simple, you had to eliminate one of the four defined targets before stealing a cache of loot and exfiltrating. However, 15 other pairs of players shared a similar objective. The battle royale aspect then took on its full meaning.
A certain Splinter Cell VR was announced before being canceled some time later. If we regret the cancellation of these projects, the remake does not have to worry. These famous job offers have reassured the community who can’t wait to see the result. As a reminder, the proposal for this reimagining will be a little different to fit with current times.
