In December 2021, Ubisoft announced an official remake of Splinter Cell. And, since Ubiforward 2024 (Ubisoft Forward June 2024) is almost upon us, Splinter Cell fans were hoping to see this remake at that event. However, that won’t likely happen.
According to industry insider “Shinobi602”, Splinter Cell Remake will not be present at Ubiforward 2024. As the insider noted, the game is not in development hell. However, it still needs more time until Ubi is ready to showcase it.
From what we know, Splinter Cell Remake will be using the Snowdrop Engine. In 2022, the French company also claimed that this remake will have a story designed for a “modern-day audience.” While I’m a bit skeptical about this, I’ll try to remain optimistic. So, let’s not crucify Ubi until we have the game on our hands.
In December 2022, Ubi shared the first official concept artwork for this remake. And, that’s pretty much all we’ve gotten for it so far.
In short, don’t be expecting to be playing Splinter Cell Remake anytime soon. Still, it’s at least good to know that the game hasn’t been canceled.
Speaking of Splinter Cell, an RTX Remix Mod for the first game is currently in development. While the mod is not available to the public, you can find here a WIP video from it. As said, this is a WIP project, so make sure to temper your expectations. Still, it looks promising.
Ubisoft will hold its Forward June 2024 event on June 10th at 12:00PM PT/9:00PM CET.
Stay tuned for more!
