The Splinter Cell Remake Is Still Lurking In The Shadows
The Splinter Cell remake remains in active development at Ubisoft Toronto nearly five years after its 2021 announcement, despite the complete absence of gameplay footage or official trailers.
Recent job listings discovered by Insider Gaming for positions including level designer and producer confirm that work on the project continues. While staff hiring and departures are common in game development, these postings represent tangible evidence that the remake remains under active development.
The project’s trajectory has been complicated by Ubisoft’s corporate volatility during this period, including multiple rounds of layoffs, studio closures, and organizational restructuring. These disruptions have repeatedly raised questions about the remake’s status and timeline. However, continued recruitment efforts suggest the company remains committed to completing the game, even as its development schedule remains unclear.
The job descriptions provide limited insight into the game’s scope and current phase of development. Beyond confirming the remake is still in progress, concrete details about gameplay features, release windows, or significant milestones remain undisclosed by Ubisoft.
