[Danny Dudekisser]

There is literally nothing Ubisoft can do with this franchise at this point that would be a net positive. They don't have the balls to do something interesting or actually make a proper stealth game again.

 

[Jigsaah]

I think already announced some mobile garbage didn't they? This doesn't look like any Splinter Cell I've played.

Fuck this is depressing.

 

[MMaRsu]

More remakes

 

[Vyse]

Samantha Fisher incoming.

 

[DeepEnigma]

 

[phant0m]

Michael Ironside or bust

 

[Vyse]

Michael Ironside or bust

Thought he died. Happy to see he is still with us!

 

[saintjules]

This is their last chance to turn the tide.

I don't know that tweet is rough looking.

 

[Hideous Snake]

That definitely doesn't look like a remake. More like a remaster but I don't care at this point just GIVE ME

 

[DragonNCM]

 

[Jesb]

We all need to buy this remake if we want this series back. Hope it's a success.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

I just cannot imagine Ubisoft NOT fucking up whatever it is they're doing.

 

[vpance]

Probably too late to make any waves but maybe it's just a cheap cash grab project for them.

 

[TGO]

I don't know that tweet is rough looking.

Looks like an old render.
you can't be seriously thinking that's new, based on the shape of his face it looks like Pandora's Tomorrow era

 

[EverydayBeast]

Blacklist was a huge high for Ubisoft, I suspect it's VR related is my guess.

 

[Shadowstar39]

Model doesn't look cutting edge so it's a remaster I guess.

If it's a remaster of one of the first XBOX Splinter Cell(s) then it's the best possible scenario.

A Splinter Cell remaster the same year as Oblivion Remaster??

It will be a remaster of conviction and thats it. A game you can get on Xbox right now, and imo the worst in the series. It won't be the OG trilogy the first two delisted unless you own the disks on console

 

[Insane Metal]

Well hopefully so because that 'render' looks like crap

 

[yurinka]

My guess is it'll either be a remake for part 1, shitty new remasters with barely effort made, or a new entry that's a far departure from the originals.

The only winning scenario is option 1.

They announced some time ago to be working in a remake of Splinter Cell

 

[Efren is G.O.A.T.]

Guys! This picture is not from the remake or a new game. It's from Pandora Tomorrow that came out in 2004

 

[R6Rider]

That's all I want from Ubisoft anymore is a well done Remaster of the first game. Of course the other titles are welcome too.

 

[R6Rider]

Guys! This picture is not from the remake or a new game. It's from Pandora Tomorrow that came out in 2004

Correct. Timestamped (cropped differently) or it's from a similar scene.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

looks like a FMV from an early 2000s game.

What even is that pic? Where is it from?

Looks awful.

Well hopefully so because that 'render' looks like crap.

It's a frame from the opening cutscene of Pandora Tomorrow (2:26):



Edit: beaten by a minute, damn!

 

[Insane Metal]

Ahhh ok

 

[R6Rider]

Lmao same video too.

 

[Deerock71]

 

[SILKYSMOOTH30FPS]

Looks like some low effort remaster that will get memed into the ground. Good luck, Ubishit.

 

[TGO]

Wow, mine was just a wild guess from the shape based on his face with Goggles on.
I was pretty certain but thanks for the confirmation

 

[Griffon]

A simple remaster of the first 3 games that'd run on modern hardware (with functioning mercenaries vs spies mode) is the best possible scenario.

They lost the ability to make new ones long ago.

 

[Sybrix]

Pandora Tomorrow remake then?

 

[StueyDuck]

remember how the Prince of persia (ps2) remake was meant to be visually stunning and amazing, then it turned out it was Ubi india and the game looked rancid and has all but been shit-canned.

I'm expecting a similar situation with this.

would loved to be proven wrong, the stealth genre is painfully absent currently.

Redemption actually look cool.....albeit very derivative of the times.
Ubi Indias game was never gonna see the light of day.

This game is being handled by Montreal.

SplinterCell in Snowdrop or Anvil.........uuuufff chefs kiss.
Im gonna guess Snowdrop cuz theyve already mastered lots of shadow casting lights with that engine.

Well i hope what you are saying all ends up being true, because i'd genuinely love SC to be back on the scene properly and not some dumbass mobile thing like we have gotten before.

 

[DKehoe]

They should have given him a third eye on his forehead.

 

[Chukhopops]

I certainly hope it's not Conviction, not the worst but far from the best SC.

If it really is Pandora Tomorrow and they don't completely fuck it up that's gonna be the first Day 1 Ubisoft game for me since Mario + Rabbids.

 

[KungFucius]

they yet to show his bottom part.

Vagina with balls confirmed

 

[TGO]

Those games were very advanced with lighting, I wonder is the remake will set the bar again

 

[Black_Stride]

If its mobile or a skin for some other game, im gonna be so pissed.

I loved Conviction when it came out because of the time and place and the general fatigue of the franchise.

that being said it's not a good splinter cell game, same as how BotW and TotK aren't good Zelda games.

I'd love a James Bond or Mission impossible game in the style of Conviction though, it was a great action game.

 

[RoboFu]

Aaaaannnnddd....... it's actually a new multiplayer roguelike!

 

[MMaRsu]

Guys.. the picture isnt from the remake. Isnt that obvious? Damn. Think guys.

 

[Paradicia]

Love how some of you act like clairvoyant game designers because Ubisoft dared to nod at the OG character design. Have any of you even looked at the remake concept art?

 

[Ben87fr]

The image description says it's from Chaos Theory...

 

[Paradicia]

The image description says it's from Chaos Theory...

Yeah, it literally says it in the ALT description on the Twitter post.

"Close-up of Sam Fisher from Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, showing a stern expression with focused eyes, short dark hair, and a rugged beard, set against a blurred high-tech background. He's locked in."

 

[Labadal]

Will it be good, or will it be bad are secondary questions.

Will I own the game?
