Splinter Cell remake shares concept art but still "very early" in development

Today marks the 20th anniversary of Ubisoft’s much-loved (but distressingly absent) Splinter Cell series, and to mark the occasion the publisher has shared a smattering of concept art for its upcoming – but still “very early” in development – remake.

All this comes via a special 20th anniversary developer roundtable video, culminating in a look at the future of the franchise. There’s a brief mention of the Netflix animated series – which was announced last June and is still in the works despite radio silence since then – and, of course, a bit on the eagerly anticipated Splinter Cell reboot.

Ubisoft announced its reboot – described as a ground-up remake – last December, with producer Matt West saying, “We’re going to update it visually, as well as some of the design elements to match player comfort and expectations, and we are going to keep it linear like the original games, not make it open world.”
