Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell 2018 has appeared on Amazon... but don't expect official confirmation until E3
Could Sam Fisher be making his long awaited comebac꧋k this year? Amazon💎 Canada sure think so.

Either Sam Fisher has hacked into Amazon’s mainframe and outed the existence of his next big game, or someone at the online distributor&🌳rsquo;s Canadian office is in big trouble. Not only did for "Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell 2018" appear 🌼on the website, but the details suggest the game will be officially revealed at this year’s E3 convention.
The listing has since been taken down, but spotted the post and got the internet talking before Ubisoft could begin damage control, though it is still possible that this was just a speculative placeholder listing from Amazon, so it can't be counted as definitive confirmation of the game&𝄹rsquo;s existence just yet.

That said, previous information about the future of Spliꦰnter Cell does seem to corroborate with the theory that Ubisoft will be releasing a new installment in the stealth-action franchise this year.
At E3 2017, Ubisoft Montreal's 𒉰CEO Yannis Mallat teased a Splinter Cell revival in the near futu🅘re, while reports as far back as 2016 suggested Michael Ironside - Sam Fisher’s voice actor - was back at Ubisoft to work on an undisclosed project.
The last Splinter Cell game was 2013’s 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Blacklist, which releܫased for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC at the tail end of that generation’s lifespan. That means a new Splinter Cell would mark the first time the franchise hits the Xbox One and PlayStation 4, and it’ll be interesting to see how Ubisoft drags Sam Fisher into theꦐ new generation for a more modern stealth-action experience.
That said, the only platform specified by Amazon was PC, so a console version remains unconfirmed for now, though the likelihood is high, with even a Switch port seeming somewhat 🐭plausible given the publisher’s close working relationship with Nintendo.
Ubisoft has also implied that a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new Assassin’s Creed game won’t be out this year, so a Splinter Cell sequel would be the ideal title to fill that gap, making a Fall release date all the more probabl🍬e. If that listing is to be believed, the return of Sam Fisher is only a few more months away...
