Now that the series is back at Ubisoft Montreal after Pandora Tomorrow was created at Ubisoft’s Bangkok Studio, we’re promised that the talented team will revolutionize what we come to expect from the stealth/action genre.Īmong the improvements set to feature within Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory are improved close-range combat such as inverted neck break manoeuvres and deadly knife attacks, a “totally” open level design, enhanced interaction with the environment and vastly superior AI whilst Ubisoft Montreal are boastful about offering the best graphics seen on this current generation.įans will be glad to know that multiplayer will once again feature, although more emphasis will be placed on interactions between players and being able to assist one another.
To prevent these attacks, Sam Fisher must infiltrate deep into hostile territory and aggressively collect critical intelligence, closer then ever to enemy soldiers. Set in the year 2008, the world is under threat from cyber-terrorism blackouts are knocking cities offline, the stock exchange is sabotaged and national defence systems hijacked. The game is scheduled for release on Xbox and PC for Christmas 2004, whilst *other* versions will follow in Q1 2005 – including an N-Gage version.
As predicted back in June, the full name for Sam Fisher’s next title will indeed be Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory.
