Splinter Cell Heading to PS3
Over six months after Splinter Cell 4's existence was first revealed, Ubisoft has made it official: Sam Fisher's next mission will be on current and next-generation consoles. In a statement, the confirmed that "Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell 4 will be available in spring 2006 for current and next generation consoles as well as PC," facts first revealed in a March 2005 financial report.
Though Ubisoft didn't name any specific nest-gen consoles, the PlayStation 3 is tentatively scheduled to hit the American market in spring 2006, raising the possibility that Splinter cell 4 could be a launch title for Sony's forthcoming console. And given the fact the France-based publisher sent out a press release timed to coincide with the start of Microsoft's X05 event in Amsterdam, an Xbox 360 version is all but certain.
Unfortunately, the Splinter Cell 4 announcement divulged about as many details as a redacted intelligence document. Ubisoft would only say that the game "will thrust players into a new breed of game play that promises to innovate and revolutionize the Splinter Cell franchise." Plot-wise, the publisher said that it "is taking the saga of Sam Fisher into entirely new territory, expanding the story and depth of his character."
We will have more details on Splinter Cell 4 as they emerge.
