Players have received a much-awaited (but unofficial) update on Splinter Cell remake‘s release date window, and it’s not exactly good news. Announced in 2021, the game is reportedly still years away. We heard the same update back in 2022 when Ubisoft said that Splinter Cell is in very early stages of development.
Splinter Cell remake release date window might be 2026 at the earliest
According to known insider Tom Henderson’s publication Insider Gaming, who seems to have pretty reliable sources within Ubisoft, Splinter Cell remake might come in 2026. Keyword: might. It certainly doesn’t look like the game will be out any sooner than that.
Insider Gaming claims that although their sources suggested a potential 2026 release window, they “didn’t want to be held to that time frame.” At this point, we wouldn’t be surprised if it turns out to be a cross-gen game that also launches on the PS6.
Ubisoft’s release pipeline is looking scant going forward. Following some lackluster releases, the company also decided to delay the next entry in its tentpole Assassin’s Creed franchise. AC Shadows, which has been mired in controversy since its reveal, will now release on February 14, 2025 — a departure from the series’ previous release pattern.
