Ubisoft has announced that they have delayed the release of the latest game in their stealth-action series, Splinter Cell: Conviction, till April, 2010. The game is the latest in a long line of Xbox 360 exclusives (although it’s also scheduled for release on PC) and it aims to reinvent the Splinter Cell saga.
Original articles from 2007 & 2008: Splinter Cell Conviction has been taken “back to the drawing board” by Ubisoft Montreal reports Xbox World 360 magazine, adding that the game has now been delayed to 2009 or even as late as Spring 2010. Although it’s currently set to Q2 2009.
In the game, you once again take on the role of Sam Fisher, only this time you are a fugitive and you’re being ruthlessly hunted by the very government you once served. The key to your survival is to improvise, adapt and overcome as you wander through crowds in broad daylight!
To survive, you must build an underground network of allies who will help you obtain hi-tech gadgets and stay one step ahead of your pursuers as you struggle to unmask the forces that want you dead. Splinter Cell Conviction will deliver an adrenaline rush of game play with blood-pumping chase sequences, close combat and intense gun battles.
