The Ubisoft Forward did not show a highly anticipated game and fans are once again desperate
During the Ubisoft Forwad fans received no new news about a highly anticipated game and now they are all desperate after years of silence from the French company.
During the Ubisoft event, various games coming to PC, console and mobile were shown, including big names like Assassin’s Creed Shadows and Star Wars Outlaws.
Unfortunately, the French company did not show other highly anticipated video games which seem to have disappeared into thin air. It’s easy to think of Beyond Good and Evil 2 , for example, for which many have lost hope after all these years of silence.
However, there is another game that fans were really hoping to see again: the remake of Splinter Cell .
Public reaction to the lack of Splinter Cell
Ubisoft players had hoped to see the stealth game again during this Ubisoft Forward, but that wasn’t the case. There was therefore no shortage of online reaction, with the average response taking the forms you can see below.

Recall that the Splinter Cell remake was announced in 2021 and concept art was published in November 2022. Video game development takes more and more time and Ubisoft is busy in multiple directions, but after two and a half years fans were hoping that at least a teaser trailer confirming the game’s existence was on the way.
This was clearly not the case. Furthermore, a new Splinter Cell game (Blacklist) has not been published since 2013, so fans have been “suffering” for over ten years due to the absence of the character, if we clearly do not count the appearances in other video games of the company.
Tell us, were you hoping for it too?
