Upcoming sneaker Splinter Cell: Conviction is likely be released sometime after April next year at the very earliest, says Ubisoft.
The publisher, when speaking of its 2008/09 sales performance, revealed, “Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell, whose release was previously scheduled for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008-09, will now bolster the line-up for fiscal 2009-10”.
Ubisoft explained in a conference call:
“Splinter Cell is a very important franchise for Ubisoft and we have high anticipation for this game. It is a major product and we want it to be able to catch all the gameplay opportunities it is offering to us today. There are lots of opportunities that we want to take and so that is why we can give [them] a little bit more time to make sure it can become a huge product.”)
Normal-speak sets that date as between 1st April 2009 and 31st March 2010, and it’s to be out for PC and 360.
